    Ottava Rima is hard to pull off without sounding forced, and you acheived it! This poem was rather great, just the sheer emotion and power put into the piece made it great. Whoever can pull off an Ottava Rima deserves a ten out of five. Keep on penning!

  • Wow, Natalie this was good!! I have never read a Ottava Rima so it was kinda fun for me to see a different style of poetry!! The rhyming and flow were good didnt seemed to be forced at all!! It was so full of emotion!!! I loved the 1st stanza

    "Can you see me slowly fading away,
    My presence drifting into the distance?
    The tears I've cried no longer display,
    The pain that I feel through all the silence.
    My mouth is sewn shut so words cannot spray,
    Of what is trapped inside of my conscience.
    Would you rather have me slip down and fall,
    Or should I never say goodbye at all?"

    Excellent!!5/5!!
