My dear Mattiello, I saw somewhere on here that youΒ welcome links to deviations to be critiqued. If it's not a bother, may a kindly ask that you please have a look at my latest poem? Constructive criticism is always welcome Β 

EchenaisBeneath the darkened waters
of ancient tides and streams,
lived the lovely Echenais;
lost in love-sick dreams.
Beneath the twinkling stars,
and the fickle moon above,
She laid her hopes upon a prince,
she longed for lust and love.
The mortal Daphnis found her
by the river she cared for so,
and underneath the weeping willow,
her love for him did slowly grow.
She laid with him beneath the stars,
and her loneliness did ebb away.
He promised her eternal love,
much to another maiden's dismay.
The daughter of a king, she was,
and longed for the mortal shepherd too;
and to the lovely Echenais,
the fickle Daphnis was untrue.
The water nymph was heart broken,
hearing of her lover's deceit.
She swore to be avenged;
she would not with another compete.
His mistress was a maiden fair,
her beauty was his one delight.
But he wronged the pure Echenais,
and for his betrayal, she took his sight.

I heard about you from TheKrimzonDemon 's recent journal. He says that you're doing some pretty amazing stuff right now! I'm not really sure exactly what it is but I want to thank you for making an obvious difference in at least someone's time here on dA.

soulspoken In reply to Mattiello [2014-04-26 00:00:22 +0000 UTC]

Absolutely. I think that people should be recognized for the good that they do. Unfortunately I am not able to extend the thanks to every single person, but when someone states the efforts of a person in particular it makes things easier.

Hello. Many thanks, and I'm glad to see more deviants writing guides for aspiring writers, it's something I really can't do, due to the nature of my work. I just...somehow do what I do, I didn't really "learn" it anywhere, it's just me. People ask me a LOT how to do what I do, and I can't ever teach them. So, it makes me really happy to find deviants like yourself.

Mattiello In reply to TheseKrimzonFlames [2014-04-19 16:55:32 +0000 UTC]

You are really a wonderful person, Krimzon! Regardless of whether or not you teach it forthright, discerning readers will still be able to learn from your work. Go ahead and link me a piece that you feel best represent your style and any other aspects people have asked you to teach. Multiple links if necessary. I may be able to link commonalities, individual flares, important literary elements, etc. to create a guide. A critical analysis foe your review before it's posted. Do let me know!

Anyway, thank you so much for the warm compliments and your wonderful support. It means a lot to me, and I can't wait to continue to be a supportive member as well.

A Life SymphonicMy life is an open book,
A symphony for the ages
Watch the unfolding panorama,
As I quickly flip the pages
See me rise,
See me fall,
Hear me scream,
As I hit the wall,
Ten thousand times, over and over again...
(This...is real...)
Pain and anger,
Become words,
Those words become set to music,
Every one of them written down,
Because I'm so afraid I'll lose them
I am life,
And I am loud,
So full of passion,
In which I freely drown...
These are my words,
My testament,
So, get ready to drown,
In a life symphonic-
Now! Listen to the sound!
Let it carry you away!
Now! Listen to the sound!
Let it fill all of your days!
Now! Now! Listen to the sound!
And watch the whole world become my stage...
My life is so hard, believe me,
It's worse than you can imagine
Forever breaking these binding chains,
It's so epic and so tragic
See me stand,
And see me face,
All the things,
Which would disgrace,
If only given a chance...
(This...is real...)
Loss and sorrow,
Become words,
Those words become set to mu
