Always

Its always your smile
or its always your eyes.
its always your laugh
that makes me want to cry

i want to cry
because i know well never be
when you look me in the eyes
you dont really see

all you see is a girl
who need someone to hold
but you dont know its you
unless someone told

if you were told
then who let you know
was it that obvious
did i let it show

if you know
then listen to what i say
ill always want you
every single day

    This is the sweetest love poem. I just love the simplicity of it. And the imagery is sweet and enduring. Thanks for your entry.

    First of all, thank you for entering my contest and sorry it took me so long to get to your entry!

    This is an interesting poem, but I think you concentrated too much on the rhyming... This would probably sound more natural if you changed some small things... Actually, I think only the third stanza need to be improved a little bit...
    "unless someone told" doesn't work well with the rest of the poem.

    But other than that, well done.

    Thanks again and keep on writing!
    Annie

    Welcome to AllPoetry

    Hello there!

    A sweet write that with a little tweaking, could be very unique. I would go over each stanza and bring to life each aspect of this sad experience. If the lines seem to say something similar, I'd leave it out. Tightening might be all it needs.
    I also don't 'rush' a poem anymore. I'll let it breathe on the shelf for awhile, go back... and I will see something I didn't before that could help 'add' to it or make it very different.
    Reading others helps me too. It creates a good 'muse'.

    Thank you for sharing. If there are any site questions, please let us know. Warmly, CookieZeal
