Wow, this is dark. In a kinds sideways way it reminds me of Stephen King's The Dark Man. It really touches on the mind of somebody trapped within a dark cycle of some kind.
Personally, I prefer to see a bit more of a hint about what a poem is really about, but this was a great example of a poem that touches on emotions without clarity, and with mystery.
Conclusion — a summary of how this reader personally felt about your poem.
This is really good, dark poetry, imho.
