This piece of poetry has such strong meaning to me and that is probably one of the reasons i chose it as the winning poem for my contest.
Another reason would have been because of the brilliant use of descriptive wording and the imagery that showed up so clear and vivid in my mind.

"These Cold Nights
Are Eating Me Alive,
Wont You Stay
To Keep Me Warm
Tonight."
^^ ^^ ^^ ^^
This stanza just sets up the whole poem. It practically stood up and shouted out "This is a sad love poem, you're going to love me."

"While I Stare;
The Sky Falls Around Me,
But You Still,
Are Not There.
And While I Waltz
Through The Ballroom
Full Of Twinkling Wonders,
My Mind Returns To You.
Gently And Slowly,
One By One They,
Began To Blink Out."
^^ ^^ ^^ ^^
i absolutely loved the idea of the waltzing through a ballroom. And then as your mind returned to this other person, twinkling wonders began to blink out. i loved that bit. it just set up the whole idea of a starless night.

"Frozen I Stood,
On The Marble Floor."
^^ ^^ ^^ ^^
it made me actually see an ice statue when i read this bit. i don't know. i have a strange mind.

"I Awoke.
Seeing The Last
Of Them Blink
and Fade Away,
Like The Insistent Noise
Of The Monitor
Next To Me.
Everything Left Me.
And Again I Found Myself
In That Wonderous Hall
Of The Starless Night.
All The Time Looking,
For A Mere Glimpse
Of Your Face.
^^ ^^ ^^ ^^
In this bit, where you said the insistent noise of the monitor, it made me think of a hospital and you had no family or friends there and it was like they had all left you and then you were in the ballroom again and you were searching for.. the one you love, maybe?

There was a very powerful stpry behind this
And it was an enjoyable read. Very well written with amazing description.

5/5
