Critique of "Here Lies Love"

I really enjoyed reading your story. The composition and the style of the language used were beautiful: the poetry, the color, and the geometry all worked together in this story to make the reader familiar with these two characters (Katherine and the narrator). I think that it was an excellent choice to tell your story in sections because from section to section there is a not only a change in topic but a change in voice (in a few sections there is a first person narrator telling the story and in the other—5, 4, and 1— there is what seems to be a third person omniscient narrator). Your story was amazing and I think that it was very well written, though, I did feel that at times I wasn’t exactly sure what was happening to the characters; I felt like they were either breaking up or that one of them was dying but I really couldn’t tell what was going on. I feel like this was a minor issue because the story was more about their appearances and interactions as opposed to the development of their relationship. Once again, I really enjoyed your story. Thanks for sharing it with us.
