Hm... This was hard for me to try and decipher or w/e. ^_^ I love analyzing works, its fun. Tell me if I'm way off tho. Lets see... there was a lot of fantasy stuff going on: the sprite, a jeweled bridge. So perhaps the heart of a child also refers to a child's imagination. Like how a kid is scared of the monster under his bed. The Captor sounds pretty creepy tho... *shudders* strangely it could possibly be about death. The poem, that is. Like Grim Reaper or something. Or maybe the kid is just running away from the boogyman. Okay, its really hard to say. :S Wow... I sux at this. Anyways, great job :)
