    I liked this a lot. It gives off a strong feeling of hopelessness, nothing left to live for, so what's the point? Very nicely done.

    "You left nothing worth living," = there should be a 'for' on the end of this: 'You left nothing worth living for,'

    This work somehow managed to get a hold of my attention, although I usually am not keen of its thought. The poem's thought, nevertheless, was presented rather well in a distinctive way of self-expression. The subject's desperate demise, under the semblance of a "dear assassin," was a major, metaphorical highlight of this piece. In its technical aspects, however, I believed that there is a need for structural augmentation in order to enhance the flow.

    Anyway, I actually adored the following lines:

    "Stab the body,
    And release the aching spirit."

    How could Death grant such a delusive freedom of the soul is beyond my limited understanding. A fabulous piece, nonetheless. It was my pleasure to read. =] ~Marian
