  Interesting poem. It is a combination of anger and lament. I really enjoyed it because anyone who has loved and lost can relate to it. The phrasing is perfect. Great job.

  I find the alliteration of "L"'s wonderful! It creates this echo that adds so brilliantly to the haunting qualities of the poem. Great poem!
