You tried and succeeded in writing this! Well done writing a poem inspired by an incredibly famous piece. However, I like how you added your own style to this. Exceptional poem, congratulations on the much-deserved spotlight!

I thought I'd commented on this, I remember reading it before. I guess the comment I thought I'd written was only a dream within a dream? Well done on the spotlight.


Make fellow poets happy and comment on their poems.

I must say that I am quite impressed with your Poe(m). You got everything just right style-wise while also writing very rich and compelling sentences. I'll come back to this one many times I'm sure.

At the least, I'm sure Poe's grave shook with glee at this honorific of The Raven. Much enjoyed the read, my friend.

I read it two times now, and it totally grabbed me - I mean, the language used here is fantastic, looking at the speaker's vulnerable state, expressing this undying longing, and I thought it was like a more related to the heart and emotions reply, like said before, as if it was an aftermath to the "Raven", and the ending was just brilliant. You did a wonderful job, and you should be proud of this.
Congratulations on the Spotlight!
