    Wow.. I really like this. It was a very imaginative idea. The only thing that I saw was that in the last line of the last stanza it reads:
    A took a nap, a rest anew
    The first word should be and. But you did a great job on this. I like the aaba rhyme scheme that you had. You were very descriptive in this and it was easy to picture everything. You did a great job on this! 5/5 Keep it up!

    The imagery in this poem was AMAZING! The rhyming scheme was pretty bad hiney, too. The flow was okay; better in some parts than in others. It was still a great poem, let me tell ya. This poem seems sort of like Shakespeare, minus the way his words are.

    Overall, the imagery was fantastic and other aspects were good, but not nearly as great. If you find someone that has better critiquing skills, it might help more than this. 4/5

    The imagery in this poem was well written, however the rhymes were a bit forced. You had some creativity with what words you rhymed, and the grand scheme of AABA was very good. Your flow was thrown off at a few places. Just a suggestion, if you keep in mind the amount of syllables per line, keep it the same throughout the stanza, and your flow will be great. Not always but most of the time.

    Wow...I loved this.
    It has to be one of my favourite dark poems on here.
    You have real talent for imagery as well as wording.
    Keep up the good work.

    *Was wound and very near entwined*

    wound?

    *Around her fingers, but so dear*
    =clear

    *And took a nap, a rest anew*

    = bad ending in my opinion.

    This poem was better than the others of yours that i read, but i am seeing your poems as a little forceful and wanting to fulfill a desire. Try to make the poems come from the heart... not from the mind.

    5/5

    I don't know if I can keep reading your poetry, because as I keep reading, I feel so much more emotion drain out of my body. THAT is how much your poems move me. I have no idea how you are able to create such sad, moving, creative stories with your pen, but I just cannot get enough of it. Please... Keep writing!! :)
