Wow. Your poetry knows no bounds or chains. Is it me, or are you writing about the same person? You make the reader really feel what you feel or felt. And I dig that.

This is lovely. I was a little worried it was going to take a completely different direction from “pushed me” but this is sweet and a different look at love that isn’t often written.

I do feel “crooked smile” has become sadly overused as a descriptor, it’s a cliche all of its own nowadays, which makes this feel a little less special.

I’ve used that descriptor for the past three years. It’s become such a bad habit. I’ve since tried to switch to “squinty-eyed smile” but that didn’t flow as well to me. I’ll keep thinking of something better to use in the meantime!

I like ‘toothy smile’ it reminds me of a conniving fox.

Today, this was the perfect poem for me to (re)read. Thank you for sharing words that inspire feelings.
