Anyone can write a poem about a friend who's depressed or suicidal, and I am probably no exception, but what struck me when I read yours was how completely you managed to capture the feelings and images behind it. 

My favorite lines are "But now I see you are nothing but pieces

that you glue back together everyday"

I love this:) (well, I don't love the topic but the way you portrayed it is stunning)

I believe that poetry's objective is to pull in the reader, to allow the reader to feel every line, comma, and period. That a poem is meant to devour a person in contemplation and submit them to utmost vulnerability. And especially to have the reader be able to recognize the emotions that the writer put into the work. Congratulations. You have done just that: you made me empathize with you, with your work, in my own life. My situation, however, is about the unattainable girl whom "Alas" was for. I am sidetracking, however. Back to your beautiful piece of artwork.

Strong, lulling, empowering...all, yet soft, and eager, but patient all the same. A portrayal of human interaction and relationships.

There is one small thing aside from my appraisal of this well worthy piece, however. Punctuation would make this stronger. The reader will be able to feel things more precisely with your guidelines of commas, dashes, periods, etc. Punctuation brings in your authority to the piece, in order to direct the reader to exactly what you want. This is my only bit of criticism. You are a real, true poet.

P.S.. Sorry that i got to reading this poem late. I forgot. And i regret that i had, for this has reawakened me from the depths of negligence.
