We are all the result of what has happened to us -- those things within our control and those outside of our control. "Maybe I'm cracked perfection and a medley of damage; Maybe I'm the brightest of the dark that only a few can see." Powerful thought and a powerful truth. Good luck in the contest and in life. ann

I especially liked the lines "Maybe I'm the brightest of the dark
That only a few can see." The only line that paused me was "I'm fluent in death" as the speaker seems very alive and intuitive.
Best wishes.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is such a touching poem. I loved the hope in the ending, especially following the rather bleak outlook that the first portion of this poem had. Good luck in the contest.
