abuseHi! I am here to review this latest addition to your color series. I enjoyed this one despite not being the greatest AM fan. How do I put it? I felt that this poem was simple yet powerful, playing well on the power that simple words posess. Nothing bombastic, dramatic or whatsoever, but simply subtle and elegant. As for Aoshi's name, yes, you are right. It translates to something like purple/bluish/grey...so the mood you have woven for this poem is really quite fitting. This particular phrase 'each day the tea becomes more bitter' was my favorite. I love using tea to portray emotions due to the bitter aftertaste it has, and has used it in 2 of my stories, though nowhere was vividly as you did.

This story was a joy to read. Definitely refreshing as well, since the story I am working on currently, "Six months in Heaven", is more on drama and tragic love. I can only hope to see more from you! Take care!

Love,
MissTeak
