My knees start to weaken
At the first sight of your face
My heart starts to melt
At the thought of your embrace
Your love flows through me
Like a river flows down its path
Your kiss lifts me up so high
I could probably fall to my death
I really wish that
When I looked into your eyes I could see
Exactly how it is that
You feel about me
I get nervous when you're around me
I feel I could cry when you're away
I dream about you
Every night and day
I want you to know
My last three words will always remain true
Regardless of what I may say or do
You'll always know that
I love you.
At the first sight of your face
My heart starts to melt
At the thought of your embrace
Your love flows through me
Like a river flows down its path
Your kiss lifts me up so high
I could probably fall to my death
I really wish that
When I looked into your eyes I could see
Exactly how it is that
You feel about me
I get nervous when you're around me
I feel I could cry when you're away
I dream about you
Every night and day
I want you to know
My last three words will always remain true
Regardless of what I may say or do
You'll always know that
I love you.

Not to be flippant, but my first reaction when the page loaded for this poem was to think; "wow... maybe that idea about having no rules against formatting wasn't so great after all." lol.. the pink and green combination hurt my eyes so much I had to read the piece highlighted.
After having read it and looking at the three gold trophies it has won, I was impressed by the recognition it has received. More impressive is that the type of contests it has taken the gold in have been mostly general entry... thats a tough playing field for any writing.
Give the rather ordinary feel of the poem, I have to chalk up your success to the distinct and undeniable mastery of flow apparent in the work. Your words flow and bob along in the fashion of a (oxymoron warning) serious pop song, and consequently give the piece more bite than it would otherwise have.
This is a notable observation as I never considered how we may, in the process of adjudicating this contest, find genius in *way* words were written rather than in the words themselves. A final frontier for poetry, perhaps.
I can certainly appreciate this piece for how it has opened my eyes to the reality that I will have keep alert to the many different ways intelligence may present in this contest
Thanks for you entry, it has made me a better judge.
