Poetic Love And Independence: The Shift Between Juliet And Xiomara´s Familial and Romantic Relationships ¨Don't waste your love on somebody, who doesn't value it.¨ (Shakespeare). In The Poet X Xiomara uses poetry as a way to express her emotions. She often writes about how she feels that her mother is ashamed of her, even though Xiomara does as much as she can to please her mom.
