ps well, I know this could be fiction, but.. Well, you really touched me there. If it really is fiction, don't feel guilty for what I've written you before - this is still beautiful, and I respect you even more for capturing something so hard, so sad in such a dignified way.

"When you're dreaming with a broken heart

The giving up is the hardest part"

This is beautifully written. I lost a dear, dear friend in May because of cancer. He was beautiful, and brilliant, and pretty much like the sun, for me and our friends. He was 19. I miss him everyday...

I'm not religious, and I'm an atheist either... But knowing him I can't help but feel that there's a better place after this, because a person as... HIM, as he was (there's really not another way to say it) can't be anywhere else. Reading this poem, I think your best friend is there, too.

Thank you for this.

I hope it gets better, for both of us.

that's so sad. i can't say that i know what it's like to lose someone to cancer. i do know what it's like to go through, though, to someone close to you. my granddad got cancer when i was five or six. he was around the age of 66. he is still alive, but i still remember how he was losing so much hair my grandmother had to shave it off, and how he got down to 100 pounds, and sat around frail and able to do nothing, while they'd given him morophine and he said he saw demons and blood coming at him from the TV... i don't want to burden you, but you wrote this really well. i can feel your emotions coming through. thank you for the review, and i'll be reading more when i have time. this is really good poem. i really like it.

oh. heartrending & full of biting emotion- "and inside I was thinking ‘gold ≠ forever’" and "I forget you aren’t here, sometimes", just beautiful.

you've captured the essence of loss & love so perfectly.

Love that "can't get used to your death" kind of effect. Beautiful, it was. And it wasn't really angsty too. I love it, this goes on my favourite stories.P.S. Kind of glad you're not submitting now that i've seen this.

i LOVE everything! it's a total mystery until the last stanza where you mention chemotherapy. it's SO sad. but not in an angsty way which is great! this goes on my favourites! and maybe you should try writing in a singaporean context? i don't know, just a suggestion.

Omi that was beautiful. So sincere and down-to-earth. It's almost as if it really happened(did it?).Anyways, Brilliant job, definitely one of my favourites. I like this.
