    The imagery in this is fantastic. Just like your other poem that I have commented on, you have a very good sense of the beauty that is somehow placed in your poetry. Like a hidden message, it is always my duty to find it and learning the most of the meaning behind this is just something that leaves me in awe.

    I love this to death. It describes just about everything I'm feeling in one of my relationships right now. And the metaphoric symbols in it are kind of mesmerizing. It's amazing how much emotion and history you can portray in three little stanzas. Amazing work!

    Like So Mi Shught said, I love the imagery this uses. I do think that the third stanza is a little weak compared to the other two, since--also like the other user said--the blood theme is only compared in the first and second. Nevertheless, there's a true vibe of hatred that you feel from it, and I like that!

    I love the first stanza, but I'm not sure it fits in with the other two. I see the blood theme make the connection between the first second, but I feel that it's weak when compared to the tick analogy.

    Other than that small criticism, your wording is excellent. The imagery is fantastic. There's a nice balance with the wording and manages to get the point across quite clearly.
