I Now Know

When I loved you, love was nothing but a wing
That helped my heart to move with more poise and pace
With the glow of a star captured upon my palm
I toke your love as trust where I went

Soft vineyard eyes that blossomed my charisma
Your lips like picked cherries from the cherry tree
As if the sun shunned upon a branch your skin shunned beauty
My heart met upon the beauty of your presence

But now I know my love for you was never made
I now know I was only in love with the beauty of me

Knowing the way I feel after you spoke
Is that I was never in love with you but with me
and you were in love with me...

Please tell me what you think

    I felt there was too much repitition
    here... a lot of the same words
    were used, and I didn't feel
    much emotion from this piece.

    The ending was a bit cheesy
    to me.. but then again that's
    just my opinion. Good effort,
    though.

    really great. the cherry tree and lips; and skin and shunned beauty imagery really stands out. i think a lot of people can relate to this concept.

    Wow, not exactly what I was expecting but an amazing poem nonetheless. I absolutely love the cherry tree imagery, it speaks volumes about the deeper meaning to this poem. Great write!

    Thanks for entering!

    Dang that I've never heard a more a vain and conceited poem than this, But I hope you win the contest though.

    Wow. This really spoke to me! This contains some fascinating ideas and it's beautifully penned. I love the line "With the glow of a star captured upon my palm"- stunning. Well done!
