    Amazing poem, just a few tweaks. I am all for the whole no punctuation thing at times, but I really think this poem calls for SOME simple punctuation. Not the whole nine yards just periods/commas.

    Your voice, so smooth and tender
    I hear you speak with pride
    you caught my ear without trying
    "feelings rest beyond the eye"

    [[Your voice so smooth and tend,
    I hear you speak with pride,
    You caught my ear without trying
    "Feelings rest beyond the eye."]

    Comments: I will say one thing with the wording in this stanza 'without trying' is too much. Maybe if you traded both words with one like... peacefully or something, that's a lot less blunt. It'd go with the poem better [THOUGH, I don't think that peacefully would fit there.]

    I turn and look your way
    paralyzed in the presence of perfection
    you had me embraced in your eyes.
    wish just a glance in my direction

    [I turn and look your way,
    paralyzed in the presence of perfection,
    You had me embraced within your eyes,
    with just a glance in my direction]

    Comments; wish = with.

    the bounds of that day vanished
    to this hour I'm still in love with you
    the feelings you engraved in my mind
    just everything we have been through

    [The bounds of that day vanished,
    To this hour I'm still in love with you,
    The feelings you engraved in my mind
    with everything we have been through.]]

    Comments: changing just to with makes it flow from one line to the next better.

    Your name is a perfect tattoo
    carved all around my heart
    all time seems to stop with you
    and i never want it to start

    [ Your name equivalent to a perfect tattoo,
    Carved all around my heart.
    All time seems to stop with you,
    and I never want it to start]

    Comment: I thought the first line could just be a little less blunt - changed the way it was worded a bit
    - - - - -
    I will love you while the sky shines blue
    these Fields of grass continue to grow
    While tears of feelings still fall from my eyes
    While these oceans swift a way to flow.

    [ I will love you while the sky shines blue,
    While these fields of grass continue to grow,
    While tears of feelings still fall from my eyes,
    While these oceans swift a way to flow]

    You are more then what meets the eye
    behind those eyes is the man of my dreams.
    And with just your hands against my skin
    All hells breaking loose it seems.

    [ You are more than what meets the eye,
    behind those eyes is the man of my dreams,
    And with just your hands against my skin
    all hell is breaking lose, or so it seems]

    Comments: just a few changes for flow's sake.

    I miss you, i love you
    I adore you, i want you
    I dream for you, i breathe for you
    Its love at first sight.

    sight in which shall never go blind.

    [ I miss you, I love you.
    I adore you, I want you.
    I dream of you, I breathe for you.
    It's love at first sight -
    sight in which shall never go blind]

    Comments: I think that if you put it together it gives it a BOOM ending. Which is a GREAT thing. :]
