*Walking through an unlit world
Talking to an unfit pearl
Curled and twirled and all unfurled
Retort the defour in the all knowing courtStone by stone, block by block
Lone and lone, walk and walk
Shine and shone and stall and stalk
Cut down the stalker's stock.Gaze toward the moon
Daze th'lord and th'boon
Speak your minds
Leak your findsTell him he's great
Tell him he's pretty
Turn your back
Keep your pityAlienate the replaceable
Finally gate the sad, defaced bull
Torch and flame and dance and die
Forge the bane of lance and eyeTurn away, take one more breath
Scorn and lay, fake Dunmoore's depth
Defend like I never fastened
Pretend like I never happened*

I swapped the last two lines so it hits a bit harder
Sygyzy is a celestial event where 3 or more orbiting celestial objects such as planets align
i like it, but i dont rlly know how the first two stanzas benefit the overall message of the piece i think its somewhat white sound that plays until the main course. i do like it though but its a little inconsistent in its flow. some parts are detailed some are simple some words i think u can do without or replace (particularly in the first two stanzas, i think u end it strong but the buildup is a bit weak in the beginning)
"Tell him he's great
Tell him he's pretty
Turn your back
Keep your pity"
"Stone by stone, block by block
Lone and lone, walk and walk
Shine and shone and stall and stalk
Cut down the stalker's stock."
i would like to see more purposeful vocabulary from you. it seems u prioritize rhyming over consistent storytelling and thats ok but if u want a more engaging, narrative, and consistent piece, try replacing some of these words. i get the usage for repetition, but it can rlly fuzz up your piece if youre not consistent with it. i like to think of repetition as seasoning. u add a pinch of it and u taste it and ur like "ooh thats good i can rlly taste the emphasis on this theme" but if u add too much u start to block up the flow of the piece
oh, i did not get that vibe to be honest
My poetry is definitely gated, apologies
I've heard the same before
I can list meanings to some things that are completely unseen
it ok, i enjoyed reading it! thats js my opinion. i would tell u how much i love it but that always comes w reading ur stuff so i js think giving straight critique is more efficient
no, im ok
anyway i GYAT to do my math hw see u vro

Unlit world refers to how the world's morality has dimmed to a point of mutilation.
Unfit pearl refers to me, a stone that stands out- but because it's misshapen.
Stone by Stone, block by block referring to the process of building a relationship
Stalker's stock refers to the natural human need to build connections socially
Gazing to the moon is a Bruno Mars reference- meaning insanity and intense loneliness driven to the point of talking to objects.
the "Tell him" stanza uses direct quotes. I was called great and called pretty, but I was abandoned with a complete lack of pity
"Retort the defour in the all knowing court" means to Spite the impossible strength of fate
