Wow. I was totally absorbed in this poem all the way through. I can see places where it could be tightened, but wow--it's amazing, especially for a first draft.
More marination makes sense. It’s such a rich, layered set of poems. I don’t know how to say this without sounding jealous in a mean way, but I wish I had written this! It’s such a gorgeous concept.
What an incredible portrayal of loss on both sides. I went on to imagine that the love they had been writing to had already let go and had been waiting and writing also.
Such an interesting idea!
My dreams are wicked

Thank you. Maybe they were in a different cemetery and they couldn’t travel between.
Yikes, that was discomfiting! 😱
Apologies - does it need a trigger warning?
Ooh, I've no idea of the protocol I'm afraid. And no filters either, so not the best person to ask!
Very clever piece though!
