Crimson Bliss
I remember when I met you; there was nothing I could say.
I started feeling faint and sickly, for you took my breath away.
I could not deny your beauty, and I longed to make you mine.
Even though I felt I was unworthy, of something so divine.
How I cried many nights after that; for your love was just a dream.
How could one so beautiful such as you seek a wretch such as I seem.
I cursed my face, I damned my life, and I hid deep in the dark.
When all of a sudden I felt I should take a stroll down to the park.
The moon was full, and shining bright; a solemn midnight sun.
I started out by slowly walking, and then I began to run.
And when I stopped I saw you there and froze right where I stood.
And for a moment I saw you smile, and wondered how you could.
My hair, my face, my ragged clothes do nothing to appease.
I knew the very sight of me, did nothing much to please.
You started walking over to me, as if you seemed to care.
At first I thought there was someone else, but no one else was there.
You took my face in both your hands; I would never forget this kiss.
I know I felt a lot of things, but nothing such as this.
You asked me if I’d stay with you, for now and ever more.
The words were there, but I couldn’t speak; this has never happened before.
I used to fear I’d be alone, and I’d never find the one.
But I guess I was a fool to worry, I feel my search is done.
Your beauty is incomparable, as is your passionate kiss.
I find myself lost in a dream; this bittersweet Crimson Bliss…

This poem is sweet and sincere, without having that sticky, ooey gooey sugary-sweet "life is absolutely perfect" feeling to it that makes most readers want to scream. I love the way it flows like a story, and the simple rhyme scheme is cute and fitting.
Keep up the good work! -
great
The pureness of the poem is really felt through your passionate imagery and the flow was like a stream. Good job

i like this too
I might spend my whole life pondering what love means to me...
but out of the three words you used to describe love i found I would keep only "sincere".
Which makes me think this: prejudice should be in favour of the person you love, more often than not
"Unexpected" is probably true, i think it goes with appreciating love that is given freely. -
