The poem is great, it's like some medieval type thingy poem. Trying something new is not so bad, who knows? maybe you'll be much better with that new thing you just tried.

Very good poem Abs, kinda sad how I think the dark poem is better then the love poem in old engligh huh. I think you did great job, 5/5.

Wow. That was interesting. I got a little distracted because of the old english, but I always got back on track. I think the flow was very good, and I liked how it didn't rhyme. For some reason, I think this poem would sound really weird if it rhymed. Maybe it's because of the old english.

I am confused about what exactly this is about, though. When I was reading it, I was imaginging a prisoner of some sort. i think it's because of this line "Is bound to be hanged". I guess I'm thinking back in the midevil times, because of the word choice. So, we've got a prisoner that's going to be hanged if he flees..? Am I right? Hm. It would be great it you explained it to me, cause this going to be bugging me. Haha. >.>

Anyways, great poem!

Keep writing!
