Untainted Love

Like a guardian Angel,
You are there when I need you most,
With untainted beauty glowing in the Sun's radiance,
Your presence overwhelms me with unbelievable joy.

Like an addicts ecstasy,
You are the one I always crave,
My tender heart selfishly desiring more,
More of your amazing charm and implausible smile,
Your intense personality and insane beauty,
Your pure perfection.

    I think the first line would work better if "Angel" wasn't capitalized. It's not a proper name and thus does not need to be capitalized. I love the first stanza however, the way the sun's radience is so bright it seems to block out all the darkness of our world, much like when that special person turns up in our lives. Also, in the second stanza The word "addicts" needs an apostrophe. It's kind of a cliche metaphor, but I think it does work here. Well done. Good write

    I liked your choice of vocabulary here. My favourite expression was "like an addicts ecstasy," this really unleashed many thoughts in my mind. Love is awonderful thing, and can bring about many lovely poems, just like this one.
    Thanks for sharing.

    Wow !!!

    You describe such an intensity of love that will stand the test of time, the kind one wishes could last forever but alas it always seems to vanish like dew before the rays of the rising sun. I like it.

    this is beautiful and powerful - a real sense of incredibly strong emotions, especially the longing.

    I also like the layout, which looks to me a bit like an angel - the first verse looking like wings, and the second verse looking like the splaying out of a dress.

    lovely stuff.

    This really was full with love and affection. I loved the way you showed it using two very different images, an angel and a drug, both of which were very strong and very effective. Your description was very beautiful. I loved the line "My tender heart selfishly desiring more", I remember that feeling where you love someone so much that you want more of them than anything. Great work x

    Very beautifully written!
    It's great to have someone in your life
    that makes you feel like this. It's so
    difficult to find someone that is always
    there for you and when you do find them,
    you never want to let them go. I hope
    that this special person in your life
    continues to make your heart soar everyday!
    Well done and thanks a lot for sharing
    this one here!

    Great little Poem! I like it!

    This short poem is quite good as is, but to be brutally frank a little more work on it would not hurt. I'm a believer in minimalism and as such would try to get rid of articles and shorten up this poem, even more. I think a shorter statement filled with comment and emotion is the best poetry. See some of Ted Keesor's work for examples.

    I don't like capitalization or punctuation, either. I guess I go for a contemporary poetic nuance, you may not, however.

    Your title is very good and the substance of this poem supports the title well. Your work shows real promise and I say keep it up -- remember read, read, read and re-write, re-write!

    Welcome to AllPoetry

    aww... the girl must have been delighted. As an outside reader, I felt there were too many adjectives and the imagery too explicit, but as a dedication it's just really sweet. The third line is my favorite, as I feel it's the most poetic and the strongest, followed by "implausible smile" and "intense personality". Keep writing
