Title

The title is very good. Signature can be seen as a stamp of approval, and for poetry it works very well.

Cover

The cover is generic and doesn't fit the tone of the poems overly well. It is, however, a good picture to have for a poetry book.

Poems

Your description states 'for broken hearts'. That sets the general tone of your poems to come. Your poems overall follow this tone, but the delivery does not follow through. The message is there but the poem lacks emotion. This is mainly to do with the flow of your poetry. Poetry is symmetrical. In other words; it follows a flow. It doesn't have to rhyme, but each line has to follow a specific limit. That limit is set in the first line. An example from your first poem titled The Girl;

'Once upon a time,
There lived a girl.'

The first line has 5 syllables, and the second has 4. This flow is fine, as both are similar.

Here is another example from the same poem;

'When everyone praised the warmth of the fire,

On christmas eve,

She praised too

The cold winter air;

That blew hurtful breeze only on her'

Every line has a different amount of syllables, resulting in a stuttering poem.

Several of your poems follow this same style.

Another shortcoming is your use of vocabulary. The range of words used does not convey the emotion that you would expect from poetry. Expanding your vocabulary can work wonders for your work.

While reading your poems, your tone is obvious and constant throughout. My favorite of all of your poems was 'Wish'. For that particular poem, the emotions are there and the words resonate with me. It follows a better flow.

Overall Impression

Overall, while reviewing your book, I had a tough time understanding the thought behind the poems. Poetry is an intimate art, and no poem can be judged by anyone better than it can be judged by the author. No poem means the same thing to one as it does the other. For me, the poems did not resonate, but to you, these are your life. And nothing any review says will ever sully their meaning to you.
