It's cool and all, but I think you either got the wrong idea or didn't understand fully...I said I was judging on content only. Not form or fanciness. And since your content is simply words than have to do with love...many of which I don't really see why they are there, such as "inconvenience" and "preoccupation"...I don't really see how there is a lot for me to judge.

Sorry! I thought you were only judging on whether or not you remembered it. Maybe the "I'm not going to judge on how the poem is written, word choice, flow, etc." threw me off a bit.
I would like to explain why I added "inconvenience." I guess in my experience, there are many times when it hasn't been convenient to love someone or be in love with someone. Sometimes you have to do things you don't feel like doing or not do something you've really looked forward to because you've made a commitment to love someone and spend time with them.

Oh very very nice! This was lovely!! Great to see vocabulary in play, as well as creativity for forming a heart! Great job!!

I really like this. I absolutely love the way you played with the words to make them form a heart, that shows real talent. The words are so true to, summing love up from beginning to end. I also love that risk ends it, leaving the reader with a feeling that though each will risk a lot, there's a lot more to gain than lose.

Concrete
It's loosely what people would call a concrete poem. It has a lot of good words in it. I like it. I have a tough time calling it an actual poem, but then again, I have a tough time calling a lot of writes on this site a poem. Props for putting together so many effective words. Very descriptive and very thought-provoking. I like that it ends with 'risk.'

Incedible poem - and yes, it is a poem. I love that it's shaped like a heart. This is the most interesting poem about love i've seen today
Good work!

I loved how you shaped this poem. And yes, I'd say it is a poem. In my own opinion, poetry is like art, pretty much anything can be considered a poem.

But besides. Yes. This is poetry because you've accurately described all the things and emotions that occur to the heart when LOVE takes hold.
Quite good ^_^
