In its darkness, this poem shines. It has many great lines too many to site in fact hole versus in this poem, stand out. It reads as if it were a bit of Dantes Inferno, a bit of the book of revelations Bosch, painting it crawls out of the darkness And shouts at those that will hear. And cynicism and sarcasm it speaks of a God that is unfair, unjust, invisible, and unreachable a sadistic God who plays with the lives of his creations. Very nicely written I enjoyed this poem a great deal.

A very dark story with a very dark ending. Clover wording and rhyme make this almost a dark child’s nursery rhyme.

I ENJOYED THIS.
I felt your passion. I learned a bit about Australia that I didn’t know and I agree with the concept of pain tribute to those who have reached the mark in life where they have impacted many and you did that and it was great. I got a Music question for you but not in the middle of this really great poem that you wrote sooner. I’ll hit you with a private message. Very cool. I cool.

It scares me and thrills me both to have the last say and to give it to whatever audience comes my way. She’d done well though!

Wow, The ending had me stunned. I wasn’t expecting that at all. At least their final moments were together and they weren’t alone. I am still shell shocked David. A great read.

One verse brings in the theme of assisted death - controversial maybe, But some continue on in a \'living death\' and misery, pain, or sickness, etc.

Profound!! Deep poem regarding euthanasia or suicide, whichever you wish to call it it has its positive and negative elements depending upon the case. Mixed emotions and nicely written.

Classically stated in the first stanza and modern day story transpires in the second and the third returns to the classical. The poem of darkness and light it has the most somber finish.

He either was healed of this romantic rejection or he dies still in his love however unrequited. Either way, a powerful expression.
