    Wow. This really does make you think. I love it an at first I was speechless. You start off so enticing, yet so very strong. There is a bit of a flow. Your word choice is immaculate. The emotion is everywhere and it too makes the reader think. There are no true uses if imagery, but there are places with detail, that really carry the piece.

    just accept the petty fact
    that you are home, this is comfort.
    for we all find comfort in the known,
    it is the unknown that scares us.
    The darkness.

    ^^ This stanza is my favorite, because it really says a lot without overdoing it.

    The end is simple yet interesting, it ties the whole piece together so nicely and it leaves the audience with a few questions, but that's amazing. I think you have done so well with this piece it must be worthy of a 5/5

    I felt I could relate to this piece, possibly more than the others I have read of yours.

    "everyone was born free
    but lives life in binding chains.." -- This is so accurate it almost made me hurt. We all have the power to be free beings; it's who we are. We are essentially not bind to anything, but so many live their lives as though they are.

    "just accept the petty fact
    that you are home, this is comfort.
    for we all find comfort in the known,
    it is the unknown that scares us.
    The darkness."

    ^ This is the stanza I could relate to the most. There really is nothing like the feel of being home, the comfort of just being in those surroundings that no one knows better than you. It's the outside, all the things that are opposite of what we know, that are the most frightening.

    I loved this piece.

    One small tip: watch out for spelling mistakes (e.g. visious should be vicious) :)
