Crafted wings
wrap around
my being,
carrying me
to heights
I've never known.
Letting me see
new and glourious things,
all the while
protecting me
from harm.
My reality comes to a close as I once again realize that you don't love me, and even if I love you with my everything you will never care.

I really like this poem, but the way it seems now just seems choppy. The rhythm isn't strengthen by the short lines at all. I know I am pushing my style on you, but I would do it this way. It would improve the rhythm I think. In there are a few general comments as well.

O.K. yeah I see that it makes the poem seem way shorter. Is that why you formatted it the way you did? Because short poems are not bad. They are what they are and I really like (*likes*) But, if you read the lines out loud it sounds way smoother.

I love the meaning I got from this poem. It was literal yet symbolic. That is awesome and something I have yet to master. The title should always stay the same, because without it I would have much less sense of the poem overall.

I felt like the lines were too short and, because of that, and because it was so small, it didn't have a lot of force. I'm not saying that a poem has to be dynamic, but I just felt like it could've had more to it. Overall, though, I like the concept and I think it could really turn into something if you expanded on it.
Keep writing,
