Flames clashed white pieces of heaven.
Doubt conflicted trust and faith–
blowing breezes fancy playing with my hope,
all was lost, all to be never grasped.
First 4 lines hit me with a sense of doubt, and loss all in a few moments, heaven and hell mixed with love and truth, such a good way to start off
Sparkling was love in my mind,
fading to be absent, to be never seen,
yet you blew in with wings like phoenix,
with wings of warmth, whilst I was frozen.
The vocabulary accents the metaphoric language here, the third line about the phoenix was a great imagery based line that brought it in even deeper with how you felt, very abstract
You forced fog above my eyes,
and haze above my mind, misbelief vanished
into thin air, only to come back more chaotic–
like a winter storm when it bursts in warm home.
the consistency in the topic is a big + for me as a reader, I like to see that, and I also enjoy the pacing in each stanza, nothing is forced and flows so well, again you demonstrate here the layered meanings,
Courage bleed in meadows, blood puddle
was as big as our lost love, lost pain.
Pain so cruel, reigned over my whole body,
my utter mind and pure heart.
the choice of words here is good, the point driving in more as you're getting nearer to the end. I have a thing I'd nitpick but I dont wanna, I really enjoy this so far
So I will say last words, as so long, goodbye–
beneath them all hatred was gushing in
spirit of mine, I'd never guess that
I was better off alone, absent from your gaze.
The closer... Ties it all to home, and hits a certain note all of us can relate to. Love lost, numb hope, feeling. I relate with this entire piece so hard. As I am going through something similar right now, and I think your theme here, the imagery and the metaphors used was put together in such a good way. I have nothing to critique, as it doesn't have anything I'd want to change, thank you for sharing this to me.
