Interesting use of metaphors and imagery. Clear, accurate depiction of youthful doubts, rejections.

I would think this poem brings any reader back to those horrible years of indecision during adolescence — “I feel like an option, a box you can check” — very nice. I do think the writing could be tighter. It seems to go on a bit too long. Very Nice work.

The poet describes a crumbling young relationship with a rawness and honesty that simultaneously draws in the reader and makes them want to swerve away from such personal disclosure. Good use of powerful words and similes. The piece builds in power and longing as it continues.
