		I like that you are creating a flow to your poetry. However the repetitive nature of using the same rhyming words throughout the poem confuses me. I find you are not saying enough.
The Night
Confined in darkness the light shines brightly,
The light of the moon still shines so slightly.
The breeze is heard through the hush of the night; I like the imagery here
Even the deaf can hear her fight despite,
The fight she is losing to the light that shines brightly, this is unnecessary
The light that still shines ever so slightly,
The light, a reminder - the night must end
Why, oh why - Why can she not fend?
Fend?
Yes, I don't understand the questioning and exclaiming
Fend!
Fend the light that shines brightly.
The light that ends the night so slightly;
The light that leaves for the breeze of the night, I feel like this stanza says the same thing as the first stanza
Why must the light still want to fight despite,
Despite the reason why the light must shine so brightly,
Oh why - can’t the light shine slightly?
The night should not want to begin its end.
But then again, why should the night have to fend?
Fend?
Yes,
Fend!
The night should not fend.
It is an inevitable end.
My friend…
The night must end.
We are the ones that are left to fend
Til’ the end.
The end. repetitive
