.Set me free.
Like soaring birds
That navigate through the skies
Like ships
That sail through the air
Like pidgeons
That are set loose
Like souls
That are no longer bound by chains
Like prisoners
That are no longer imprisoned
Like my secrets
That aren't so secret
Like spies
That get locked up
Like dogs
That are muzzled
Like feelings
That are always supressed
Like truths
That never get told
Like stories
That are long forgotten
Like those who died
That never made an impact
Like people
That can't do what they want
Like caged birds
.Help I'm trapped.
Now read it backwards.

Sorry, 
, I kinda took your idea of writing a poem in reverse. Except, yours is so much better and more creative than mine. I just wanted to see if I could even do it.
Yeah, so read it from the bottom up after you finish.
It's supposed to gradually change from free -> trapped in the poem and vice versa when you read it the other way.
I hope you like it ;-;

i mean a really good poem to begin with then the reverse thing is just awesome

lol Cherushii made my icon <33333
there are three kind of people in the world, those who can count, and those who can't
It definitely gets darker the further down you go (an interesting metaphor in and of itself, now that I think about it), and I was really surprised by the hopelessness of it all. So I think it's a wonderful application of this whole reversal thing, because you don't really want the poem to end on such a sad note -- by telling us we can rewind, letting us read it backwards, you're letting the reader go back and end the poem on a high note. I dunno how to describe it, just that it sort of feels like getting a second chance, maybe gaining a new perspective on something you didn't quite appreciate enough the first time around. My poem was just pretty hopeless in either direction, lol.
I'm sorry I didn't say anything about it in school, I didn't get a chance to read this until I got home today.
By the way, I'm glad you're submitting more writing stuff now. You should, y'know, keep doing that. Perhaps even more often.

Aww, thank you. I'll try. ^_^; I'm not that great at writing, and I want to improve a lot, so maybe this'll help me.
