Mia's review of Alana's poem

I liked that I could relate to her poem, especially in lines 13-14 when you talk about traveling so far from the girl that you used to be because I came a long way from being this naïve little girl to the person I am today. So I thought that was very relatable. I also like that in the first line you gave a simile comparing your thoughts to medieval torture devices which illuminated the picture of your mind being your own enemy with the dark thoughts. I like how you also used a lot of imagery to connect the readers with your thoughts. However, I thought that youu could have elaborated a little towards the middle of the poem about the girl she was to give just a little more detail about who she really was. I think by doing that it connects with the reader more, but overall I loved the poem.
