Although the predominant poem types I write are dark, for some reason I much prefer reading lighthearted poems. This is -such- a dark poem, the very core of the poem is dark. In honesty though, what can really be expected with such a title.

It holds a steady rhyme scheme throughout and shows really nice use of imagery.

I always feel that the shorter poems tend to hold in a readers mind better than the longer ones. They have to get everything across with so much more power as to use fewer words.

Overall this is a very nice piece of poetry, really nicely written.
