Hi Amethyst Snow Angel,

This is a fantastic poem. The tone is full of confusion and frustration. It grabs all the reader's attention and makes them want to read on. The poem is about someone who has given up doing anything risky for fear of failure. I am hoping that the speaker will find the strength to participate more in life. I read to the last word to see if this happened. I loved this poem. The rhyme is well done and consistent. It gives the poem a wonderful rhythm. The meter is consistent from line to line. The poem flows extremely well. It is a pleasure to read. You have used punctuation and grammar consistently in this poem. There is nothing to distract the reader from their reading pleasure. Great job.
