and despair seems to ooze from your poem, making it all seem so real. Nice read.
This is a really good, emotive poem. I especially liked the last verse where tear can be interpreted in both its meanings and still maintain sense in the structure of the verse. (I think you could find a way out of the rhyming structure to make this an even stronger poem, though.) This poem will be mentioned in the New Poems review thread on the Poetry Feedback and Discussion Forum on the Bulletin Boards.
