  Wow, what a beautifully emotive poem. The imagery of love lost in the flicker of a flame is so poignant and powerful. The raw emotion expressed throughout the poem really struck a chord with me.
  
  One suggestion for improvement could be to expand on the reasons for the mistakes that were made, and delve deeper into the emotions surrounding them. This would add even more depth and complexity to the poem. Additionally, perhaps incorporating some hopeful or uplifting imagery towards the end could provide a sense of resolution or closure to the reader.
  
  Overall, this poem is a wonderful reflection of heartbreak and loss. Keep writing and exploring different themes and emotions – your talent shines through in your words. Well done! more »
