 KirstenE 2005-06-12 . chapter 1While I like this one, I think because of its format, I think it could be compounded to something a bit shorter. With poems with short lines, I think they become more powerful the shorter the poem is as a whole, as it packs more of a punch, I guess you could say.
The last stanza is great. I like that it is similar to the first, but still says something different. The first says "I will wither away," but the last one says "I will not stay." Maybe I look too much into it, but the meaning changes, and I like the kind of mystery it has. |
