Elusive Dream

I feel your love surrounding me
burning with passion, setting free
these feeling which I can't deny.

Taking me to places unknown
Showing me things, not seen before;
lifting me up so very high.

Yet in an instant, I awake
Your righteous love, I did forsake;
leaving me here, empty and dry.

    well done

    I think you followed the rhyme scheme and form wonderfully. The message seems clear enough to me. I would add an "s" to the word "feeling" and then I think it's grand.
    kudos to you kiddo,

    good job, this is a nice write although i think that youtr first stanza affects the rythim by cutting off the last line in it. But thats what is so hard to wirte a grammatical poem, probably why i have only written one sonnet and wont do another. any ways good job, i suggest u try to say what u already have in the problem area but in a different way that still follows the scheme. keep up the good work

    nicely penned

    the part"Your righteous love, I did forsake", kind of threw me off a bit the poem seemed to be about someone you cared about very much but then you ended it as a dream.
