First name

[Mark Cecil]

Overall a well written piece with good rhymes and good content throughout.  Although I think you could improve the overall flow of the poem with a tighter meter 

FIRST NAME

Cursed is that name which radiates across the room! Great opening line with good strong iambs that give it a lot of rhythm which act as a good hook for the reader
Queer is it's power to pierce the most soulful grin. Another great line 
Withdrawing desires intended for the tomb, good imagery here
Kindling sorrows neglected with the help of gin.

Its delivery, at first, stirred no emotion,
It was merely the label on a dwelling soul.
In time, however, the title traded its role,
And came to be the object of devotion,

After it's audition came waves of desire
And a desperate longing for an amorous fate.
Unwilling at any moment to retire, I think of start of this line needs to be tightened a bit in regards to meter
It became the relentless search for a soul mate. I think you need to revise this line in regards to rhythm

Hyphenating the name failed to mirror the dream, I really like this stanza it is my favourite of the poem as it aptly describes the reality of love and marriage 
Projecting instead the cold fact, It would seem
That love, like life, is but a game governed by chance,
Leaving at times the lover alone in his dance. Great line

In time the name invoked different feelings.
Far from being a bright hope for what was to come
It became a cold memoir of the past's dealings,
Leaving the once capable body and soul numb In regards to the content of this last stanza its okay but I think it lacks a lot of rhythm compared to the rest of the poem

Overall I really enjoyed reading your work I think you have the bones and flesh of a good piece of work.
