Mini-review: Mournful. I love sad poems and this is definitely melancholic. It does well with the villanelle form as the repeating lines keep the second half while tweaking the first half. However, when read out loud I trip over certain lines as the rhythm and meter aren't quite regular and 'lose brighter star' and 'blanket of eves' strike me as odd and not in a good way. I think it's worth editing (for flow and rewording) after reading it out loud. I rate it a 4.7.
