I like the "needless to say/I don't need more". The contrast between "needless" and "need" in the two lines really adds to the poem.
I didn't like that it was so simple, because it wasn't simple and yet deep, and how you ended it made it sound almost dismissive: "this is it". I can imagine someone shrugging their shoulders as they read this poem, creating an image of flippancy and apathy rather than true emotion.
Besides that, the first two lines really speak to me.
Good luck!

i really like your take on the prompt saying that this is all you need, it says so much in a few short words, good luck in the contest and as always keep up the wonderful writing, ~Amy

You could delete line #1 and not lose any meaning in this poem. So come up with something that adds more meaning. Looking forward to reading that.
-
Not sure what it means, but I like it.
-
A little abstract, yet understandable. I'm liking it, using simple language with meanings beyond the reader's eyes. Congratulations.

lol...very different
