Want to know what i said out loud as i read this? "holy crap, aidyn...i mean *holy* frickin crap"
the meter, the rhyme...the flow of it reminds me of The Raven, and the way it progresses, i mean - it's practically the ocean tide *itself* put to an eloquent array of words....was this the poem that made your computer go berzerk? 'cause if so...i sympathize....(with your *laptop*, that is... and the green fumes of jealousy that probably spurted from it when you wrote this)

That was....whoa....I am really nearly speechless after I read this. The rhyme scheme had such a perfect rythym that was such a great hook. Really, really, cool-no-excellently cool. I loved the images that darkness around the one concept at the heart. It had such a....an...expressive way with it that it led to the excellent lines that progressed til the end. Simply put loved that from not only the words which were excellent but the entire piece. Great.

Very well done. Love to read poems wrote in this type of style. This is really an exceptional piece.

5/5, and as I said on the boards: This is a truly classic poem. It takes me back to great poet of a long time ago. Most of [your] poems do. It's one of those poems that I don't always understand what it means, but I know it represents something bigger than me.
