Quick fix: "Its" should have an apostrophe in the first two stanzas.

Excellent poem, Sam! I liked the way each line flowed into the next and it had a very easy-going rhyme scheme as well. This reminded me of the quote I shared to my Facebook page once that it's like second nature for poets to write when they are either incredibly in love, or struck by tragedy. But I believe we write in whatever mood. Poetry IS life I believe. And if our poems are honest and reflect our lives, we can only grow and share our story that way.
