    "eyes tells no lies"
    "connect with mines,"
    -Grammar! Take out that pesky "s"!

    "LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR ALL YA!!!!!!"
    -Really? This isn't needed at all and takes away any serious or formal aspect to your poem.
    -Try not to use so many exclamation points. I know I would have gotten the point with just one, and I'm sure your other readers would too.
    "Your kiss cements"
    -Whaaat? I didn't know cement was a verb. Hold on, let me check. Hmm, guess it is. For real, though. It breaks up all attempt at flow.

    "Giving my heart a hard on, arouses me physically"
    -As a reader looking for a love poem, I don't want to read this. Too graphic for my taste.

    "Just glance at me boo."
    -Haha I hope you meant to say too. If you really want to use nicknames in your poem, at least use a comma to seperate it from the main idea.

    "I thought my heart will never mend, sealed shut under padlock and key,
    But you captured me completely from the moment you looked at me. "
    -Besides the grammar mess-up with "will" (should be would), this ending is beautiful!! How is it that you write all that up to that point and manage to create such a poetic, creative ending?

    I'm not trying to be mean at all, really. I just feel bad that you're getting ratings such as a 5, when this poem is a 3 or 4 at best. This poem could be so great if you used the same structure in the last 2 lines throughout the whole poem and got rid of all the "ya"s and "boo"s. It takes away from your professionalism (if you want any, of course).

    Take this comment, or leave it. I'm just trying to help you out. I think getting thorough feedback can help a poet really mature. Take care and keep writing! =D
