Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

All relationships end. Its a fact of life and yet we never feel ready. When you close your eyes and remember what it was like it really does feel like time doesnt matter. That moment is as pure as snow. Even if its melted away.

I resonate a lot with this work in my own life right now. The way you displayed this incredibly gripping and somber feeling makes me feel less alone. The feeling of quite literally losing the bright light of understanding and commitment with someone is hard to describe at times, but your work encapsulates it beautifully.

I love the ending and the flowers on the grave metaphor. Also loved the line about going separate ways. Very mature outlook.

Sometimes in life people just need to move on and go their separate ways. There's also a certain wistfulness to the line.

Great job!

Like flowers on a grave

The chills. It really illustrates that love ending feels like youre mourning a death. Its the death of a shared dream.

I liked it. I really felt your emotions.

I say I hate the sound of my voice

But you say it’s what you love most

Or at least you did way back then

When it was you holding my hand

-

None of this makes sense

It’s like time doesn’t exist

Weeks ago out was you and me

Now it’s just me and mine

-

My head’s been faded for days

Because our love is faded away

And if I forget about the situation

I don’t need to find a solution

-

When it was said and done

We said our pleasantries

Like flowers on a grave

Went our separate ways
