    I'm not sure I got the first stanza, was it supposed to mean that the rich and powerful are still alone? Anyways, it was pretty good, it had a good message (if I got the first part right that is)

    I really like this poem.. it is very descriptive..its like it painted a picture in my mind. I Loved it! It's really sad..And i like the repetition of being alone in all of the last lines..it really makes the poem sadder & gives it a feeling of emptiness. Great job. 5/5**

    Wow that poem really blew me away. It was very deep and the repetition of being alone at the end of each stanza gave it a powerful effect. The flow and rhthym of it was really good and really held up well. It was very descriptive and I could picture it all in my mind. This is a really good poem.

    This was really good. In only three stanza you expressed alot. The flow and rhyming were excellent. And I really liked the way you worded the first three lines in the first stanza. Overall this was a really good job. Derserves more then a 5/5 but that's all I can give.

    All of your poems are filled with such depth and it is obvious the amount of work you put into them. When reading some poems, I am unsure if they meant to not use punctuation or grammar in a particular way, but because your poems are so beautifully written with talent, it is clear that these things are done on purpose. You are by far one of my favourite poets on this site.
