:( This is so bittersweet... Beautiful, but yet there is a heartstring of tragedy pulling at me with these lines. A delicate and concise weaving of emotion that is not unlike a warm blanket on a cold night. I like the flow and the feel of this one, because it does not seem too deliberate, rather it just seems to "work" as it should without trying. One of my current favorites of yours, Jack.

Thanks so much Sarah. I am very pleased you enjoyed this. Thanks again.
Hi Jack. A lovely title that suits the subject of your poem. A beautiful write about this special love that is short, concise and succinct. Skillfully crafted rhyming poetry which I enjoy. Flow is good as is the line to line transition and breaks. Very nice rhythm and enjambment. Rhyme is good as is the rhyme scheme: abab. A good mix of perfect feminine and masculine end line rhyme that is executed with precision in this piece. Deep expression of emotion; so loving and romantic. Good word choice as is the use of repetition for emphasis of feeling. Nice alliteration, assonance and consonance. A delightful write. Well penned and a much enjoyed read.

The title has a typo, lol. I read the poem a few times to see if that was intentional...
I love this picture you're used! It's so beautiful and full of perspective! I would've never thought of making butterfly wings out of faces! Now, for the poem. Now when your write something so short, it's hard to pick a favorite line, since part of it is powerful and strong. Sweet as usual. I can picture the value of every line as I read it.
