Beautiful work. Aside from this being a great write, the style of the wording really accents this poem.

Timidly wandering through your words of dismay and yet hope a swirling paradox within itself. I am rendered breathless, numb, anaesthetised by them unable to convey, express response

normally I find uneven cases and gliphs ristracting... but not in this one. You've managed to really use them effectively. BRavo - great stuff. Fox

Oh wow, this was very trippy, I enjoyed the way you've portrayed this.. The image I get from this is sad until "But My !.inner beauty.! Will always *Shine* so bright" gave it an uplifting twist of hope. Amazing work Morb. ~L
