You shouldn't apologize the way the poem changed fit in with your topic, the way i took it was the poem was building up to something swelling towards climax and then dying. for example it starts rather serenely.......................................... .........................

-Tell me, about the midnight purples you've encountered
-The solumn moody blues you've undoubtedly mounted

then it became a little emotional while maintaining its serenity.......

-Tell me, you appreciate that sandfilled carpet against your back
-Sounds of melodic conversations and the patheticly weak attack
-One a 2 o'clock star gazing, and a good crisp night counteracts

And finally ends with you in its grip mentally and emotionally........

-You've removed the spell, but I'm still under your comand
-Where ever it is you go, I hope you'll always understand

I also enjoyed the progression of the last line of each stanza and how they showed the nature of the relationship through time( this was a bout a failed relationship right?) Overall I think you underestimate this piece very good drop. 1
