Have you ever seen
The clouds detach
Away from the sky
The Sun Stealing
The gleam and brightness when the night sets in.
Have you ever heard
The tranquil tear
Or the quivering fear
Of a dew drop trickling down a withered brown leaf;
Or the screeching crow who
Tears away the silence of the night.
Have you ever felt
Like the long nights would never end
Or that the pain would
Never cease
Even in this city, however bright and lively,
Life is like a room where everyone is trapped in, where all can hear and see, but choose to keep the doors closed.
You, Have you?

The very last sentence doesn't make much sense. I think it would be better if you said, "Have you?". That would flow better. The line above that is very long doesn't flow. Your stanzas have consistent number of words in each line, except there's one or two lines that don't go with the pattern. You can fix this, simply by breaking it up more.
It seems to be one of the first things you posted, so thank you for sharing with all of us. Just do a little tweaking and I can't wait to see more poems from you. 
I also think you should create a new line with "However bright and lively". It would flow better. The main problem with this poem is an issue of making it flow. It's a good poem, but if it isn't broken up right, it doesn't flow and it leaves the reader annoyed and distracted by seemingly random breakage.
All of your word choice and grammar seems to be right and correct, so that's good.
Hi, Cheetah here, ready to review this piece on Review Day!
I liked this. It's unique, it's repetitive, it just works. I like the way you start all the sections with "Have you ever _____". It gives the poem a sort of even feel, if that makes sense. Your vocabulary and description is also exquisite.
There are only a few small things that could easily be changed.
1)There's not much punctuation in this poem. Try putting a comma, period, or semicolon after each line.
2)I'm not sure if this is an error or not:
Is "Sun Stealing" supposed to be capitalized? I can't tell if it's meant to be a proper noun or not, so if it's how it should be, just ignore this.
3) This line seems long to me:
Maybe turn it into multiple lines to help the poem flow better?
Other than those nit-picky things, this was really good. I'm looking forward to seeing what you write next. Congratulations on a job well done!
Hello, I'm emjayc and I think that this is a beautiful poem. I truly love the imagery and, although I know little about poetry and could only hope to write something as amazing as this, I'll do my best to be constructive
The one complaint I have about the poem is the second-to-last line. Perhaps it is a style of poetry, but I find the length a bit distracting in the midst of the other shorter lines.
I love how you ended the poem with a question. Keep writing poetry because this was an elegantly written poem and I would enjoy reading more!
Hi all, would really appreciate it if you could comment on my work above
Thanks!
