I have to get to reading all of your newest poetry! <3
I really liked the "snaring and daring" in the first stanza, and how expressive your word choice was for how this person has such lively emotion and how you feel it too...
I adore your word choice and in the second stanza, the bit about the piano notes only you can hear...such spirit!
Great piece, the energy is vividly there and I like how you connected it all with the idea of absolution... good luck with the contest!!!
