abuseI liked this poem. Especially the lines "Lies upon a pillow of wilted roses, Upon the alter your built" it is very descriptive whilst still conveying the emotion. At places in the poem though it seemed it had a bit of a song/chorus structure? I don't know maybe its just me, but again a very good job.

abuseI liked the progress in the poem, how the girl was at first alive, and then lost the last bit of life inside of her. The words you chose enhanced the message of the poem, a really beatiful piece of work, but also very sad.

abuse"Lies upon a pillow of wilted roses

Upon the alter your built

For yourself
"

Should be replaced with

"Lies upon a pillow of wilted roses

Upon the ALTAR your built

For yourself
"

Says me. Also, it has some cliche imagery, try rephrasing it and not forcing rhymes.

Also, you repeat a lot the word "cease" maybe find synonyms to vary the word choice a little?

just suggestions. cheers,
