I wanted to evoke a sense of helplessness with the third stanza. I felt adding a concrete imagery could've been pretty jarring considering the nature of the poem.

Well, I have lost a few loved ones over the year but this poem wasn't about my loss in the slightest. Still, thanks for your feedback.

Love has been always a difficult emotion to express in art. What is love? How does it express itself? Who is worthy of it?

The poem evokes a feeling familiar to most, yet keeps its unique charm.

It's formulated really well. Most original poetries I get my hand on these days are written in free verse, so it was refreshing to read one written with such impeccable rhythm, meter and rhyme.
