Doubt

Doubt

A Poem by Cara

Do not let it slip
Out of your control 
Unwanted thoughts it brings
Be careful not to fall
Take the right call

This is not bad for a first acrostic. Not bad at all. You're strong up until B and T, which don't quite flow together with a good musicality. For D, O, and U seem like one thought (D and O definitely are), and they flow with superb musicality. B is strong on it's own, but T kind of falls flat, like it's missing a couple of syllables or something. "Be careful not to fall" is great and should be kept since it adds to the theme of Doubt, but "Take the right call", not only does it mix expressions, it doesn't seem to fit with the theme. Also, since you're making the last two lines rhyme, the rhyme doesn't sound as pleasant to the ear, because D, O and U flow nicely without a rhyme, and suddenly we get a line that rhymes with a word in such close proximity, and with the lack of musicality, it doesn't stand out with as much power to merit a finish. If you would like a rhyme, I'd suggest rhyming the last line with another line or simply fix the musicality that it shares with B. That's all. You have a great start here. Well done!
