This isn't that bad at all. Thought out, well put, and tasteful use of words. Not the best thing I've ever read, but it is by far not the worst. It's something worth being read. Keep doing work like this, you'll only improve... sooner or later, you could be known for your poetry. I gave you my good word, don't disappoint me.
This was insane, I wish I had the word knowledge you have. By reading this, you know your a great writer. It shows in your words you use, and how you put everything together. Great job.
