All Comments on 'Scars'

an excellent, powerful poem, that is burdened (in my opinion) by the first line:

"Whispers are windows to the heart(')s desire..."

felt just too cliche. Had it fallen within the body of the poem it would not have been as noticable, but on the first line it was out of place with the rest of the poem, which was so powerful.

Once past the first line, I liked the gentle lines in the first stanza and how I was suddenly slapped with the harh lines of the rest of the poems. Overall, an excellent poem, that I think with some revision to the first line would make it that much better.

i loved the imagery and the powerful contrasts in this poem.
