The imagination was good also.

lol, i've seen you say that in several replies. Do you mean imagery?
Anyways, this was pretty good Drama Queen. The imagery was definitely
the strong point of the piece as is typical of most of the stuff you see
based on pictures. Still though you did a nice, eloquent job of conveying
it to a tee in regards to the visual reference, more so in the first third of
the poem. Though I have to say in all honesty I was left a tad confused
after my reading concluded. This was derived from the latter half of the
poem where she was over taken by the darkness. Now why exactly is
she so terrified of the darkness? I'm not quite sure understand the motives
behind her fear and feelings of helplessness. Are you refering to it as a
metaphor for pain, bad times, fear, struggle, etc...? And the light/ summer
day as happiness and hope? If you're using it in that regards i get where
you're coming from. However in that case I would have liked to have seen
perhaps a bit more depth or insight into what this darkness represented.
Did she have a troubled past? Was she plagued by some relentless pain?
And how did she overcome it only to be swept up in it again? Those are
just some of the things i woulkd have liked to have seen you touch on.
Anyways, from a technical standpoint this was soild. You had good syntax
and diction through out and it was easy to interpret your lines. Nice job
with that. Although i hate to see such good writers bound by simple AABB
rhyme schemes. I feel you could have only made it better by utilizing a bit
more complicated structure or perhaps gone free verse with it. Regardless,
props and i hope to see more from you.
