I don't think I understood this poem very well.

Stanza 1: Now that I re-read it a few times, I get the meaning. "Caged in a fright" is nicely worded, but I think it's too...vague? Or maybe it's only incomprehensible at first read for dense people like me.

Stanza 2: Good, but I think "ache" is going too far. People don't really ache for that; more like a longing or yearning.

Stanza 3: Kinda threw me off, since nothing here rhymes with the previous lines. The ending word was awkward, since the whole feet/meter thing doesn't work for the last line:

in a FRIGHT
your FEARS
LULlaby

See what I mean? Instead of the first syllable, it should be the last syllable that is stressed.

A short and sweet poem, creates the feeling of freedom after being caged within a recluse :D

5/5 keep it up :)

A kiss
on your cheek,
and he shall sing
you a heartfelt
lullaby.

Awww that's sooooo sweeeeeet

I really liked this poem it made me think alot about tons of things keep writing please!!

It was awkward reading it because it was a dance of words. The first time a round, a person needs to learn the moves, but the second time around, the words move the reader to a certain rythem. Very nice.

I can't believe I never saw this one before...its so beautiful, especially the last stanza...oh, its so beautiful...
