It's good...
But I've been taking a Creative Writing Class, and I see a lot of what they call "telling, not showing". The point of poetry is to express the abstract through through the concrete. I think to improve this poem, you should use any type of metaphor, simile, even metonymy (using something related to refer to the thing you're talking about), do describe the abstract ideas. For Example, when talking about love, use a metaphor, like a rose or, something less cliche, actually. Or Ignorance, many people use darkness or ice/cold as a symbol for ignorance.
But, you don't have to take this advice, poetry can be what ever you want it to be, but it just more understandable and pleasing to the reader this way
