Cover:

The cover is beautiful. The color scheme is magnificent. The font for the title was the perfect choice. The picture of the rose is wonderful as well. It all compliments each other nicely making the cover very pleasing to the eye.

Title:

The title is great. It's easy to remember and caught my attention. I've been looking forward to reading this since you put in the request. Based on the title alone I probably would've picked it up if it appeared in my recommended.

Overall:

Overall, I enjoyed this collection. The words were well thought out. The only issue was some of the grammar was incorrect but that can be fixed pretty easily. Most of the issues were what I stated in your other review. Random capitalization, and a few issues with subject-verb agreements. Otherwise, you are extremely talented and I loved reading what you had to say.

Poems that stood out:

Are You Fine?:

Great start. It fits the title and I loved how this one was written. The lines that stuck out to me were the first two lines of the last stanza. "Isn't it awful, Humans hide their emotions" It says a lot without being over the top. It kind of reminds me of song lyrics. The last two lines in the same stanza are wonderful as well and I love how it's written slightly like a classic poem. It's creative.

Society's standards:

I've read multiple poems dealing with this topic but I love your take. The line in particular that I like is the second line in the second stanza, "Study hard to live someone else's life." It really highlights the point of what so many do. They watch other people and fall into the belief that if it works for others then it'll work for them as well. When you need to find what's right for you. What life are you supposed to live. It's even worse with the rise of social media. Amazing poem!

Changed:

This one is probably my favorite. I like the way it's written and so many lines stood out to me. I love that the lines just oozed confidence. My favorite lines are: "Sacrificed so much, and became this tough. Conquered this dream, because I had that self-esteem." and "Stopped caring about what others say, because new beginning every day."

Just to think about but the last line might read better if it said "there's a new beginning every day" but that's just a suggestion. Wonderful job!
