abuseSince your review had a reference, I thought I'd might as well check it out.

I can see the resemblance yes, and I love how this (yours) flows. I appreciate the compliments, although I think they are undeserving, I appreciate them alot. Yours kicks **, don't put yourself down. Your rhyming isn't forced at all, which is rare. It works.

I shall read more.

take care, and do continue writing. (i should be telling myself this, im at quite the standstill *sigh*)

abuseAww!! I love this. It's SO sweet. And cute. The rhyming works really well here. I love the second to last stanza a TON. And I love "I’m gonna COLLAPSE/ Maybe, perhaps.../ I’m/ In love." It's reminds me of Hercules (the Disney movie) and that song "I Won't Say I'm In Love." Haha I'm such a loser. I listen to that song all the time. But yeah it reminded me of that which is definately a good thing. Bravo.

abuseWow I love it, I really do! The rhymes are as sweet as the subject itself and the words really flow if they would be spoken.

The end gave me goosebumps. Write on! :)

abuseI'm finally returning the nice review you left me. A bit late, but better late then never!

I love the way you haven't dramatizied (can't spell) the feelings in this poem and written it honestly and exctly how someone in love feels: confused and bewildered. The conflicting emotions are spot on as well. The rhyming is of course great.

abuseI disagree with "sushi girl". One shouldn't have to write an author's note explaining the emotions in a poem. That would defeat the point of the poem. A good one speaks for itself and should need no explanation. If the reader is not quite sure about it then it's either because the poem did not explain itself properly, or because it's supposed to create that feeling of ambiguousness.

I don't like poems that rhyme so...

But your ideas are valid, so carry on writing. Try a different rhyme scheme maybe, or some more complex imagery. A reader of serious poetry could get bored with this one. It's not so much that it isn't good, it's more because its very similar to everything that's gone before it, and as poets we must strive to be original in everything we do.

Phew! I know I sound kind of mean, but I am just trying to be honest and give you a rounded critique. I know that there's nothing I hate more than reviews which go something like "Nice poem. I really liked the rhyme." and tell one nothing. I think you're worth more than that.

Well, thank you for your short review of my short poems. I appreciate reviews. I don't like when people say "please go and look at my stuff" though, because its like ...begging for reviews. And you don't need to. I always go and look at authors who write me signed reviews.

Keep writing!

abusedid u base it on a real encounter with love? if so, do you feel envious? i suggest you write a follow up explaining your emotions afterwards.
