well, that was more dramatic than I expected it to be.

I liked it though.

It was weird. I was lying in bed and the entire poem wrote itself in my head. I couldn't sleep so I got up and wrote it down. As soon as I finished I fell asleep.

I am surprised you liked it actually. It isn't the normal fluff I write but I am starting to think I am not very good at writing fluff.

I can give you an involved critic of what I think, but tbh I'm not very good with poetry so I wouldn't actually take anything I say seriously.

I find some of it heavy-handed, but I liked that in the end he was smiling, if that made sense. idk. I suck at poetry, but I liked it anyway.

Also, near the end, you have check where you should have cheek, I think.

I really enjoyed reading this. I only read it once so far and there are a few things I don't understand yet, but I feel this is a very promising attempt to write something beautiful.
