Beautiful words to express your love for someone and they are very lucky indeed as you are also.

What a wonderful title! Although it was simple, it said a lot. :]

1st Stanza.
The beginning two lines here were so beautiful! They just lured me in and had me curious to how the whole poem would play out. Although the lines were long, it didnt affect the flow one bit and was all put together nicely. The emotions you expressed were so true and from the heart.

"dwindled love blossomed beautifully"
^Ahh I love how you worded this! What a beautiful use of the word "dwindled" It didnt overpower the line at all and blended in nicely.

"as tints of pink and red began to replace the black in our lives,"
^How bout instead of pink and rose you used cherry and scarlet? Just a suggestion. And for "replaced the black in our lives" You could say "infused color in our lives" Either way I did enjoy the meaning behind this line.

2nd Stanza.
Awww what a love filled stanza! The confusion you felt while trying to figure out your feelings was expressed so nicely here and I could truly understand what you wanted to say. Your choice of words here were flawless and there isnt a thing I would change.

"A smile crept over my face as dry lips opened, uttering the word "yes.""
^Oh my this was worded so flawlessly! Each word here just fit nicely and I could imagine it perfectly in my mind. Well said and so unique!

3rd Stanza.
Awww now thats love! I can express the happiness I feel to see you feel so much joy and love with this special someone ;] and the way you two are towards each other is very inspiring for those who still havent found their "one" I know you two will make it because you both are genunine people and had hearts of gold.

I'm so the maid of honor at the wedding. :]

Well done my Tempsy. I'm sure he'll love this beautiful love poem.
*5/5*

If I had any more votes for this week...I would nominate it.

It's a very nicely written poem. Though the lines are little long but over all it holds nicely. Good work!

You two are going to make me cry. *sigh* How I miss those feelings. I just love how you expressed yourself. A match made in heaven. God bless you both

This poem has beautiful imagery and your intense romantic feeling were expressed well

I love a great freestyle flow

I like the dedication at the beginning, it told me you really had feelings for the other person. I would suggest ending the second line with a period and starting the next line from there. With a really long sentence like this one, readers have a hard time focusing on the meaning because they are trying to remember all the words in the sentence. I noticed you started the next line with WHEN, but never finished out the thought. When you start a sentence with WHEN, I expected you to follow up with a closing thought: WHEN YOU ASKED ME, I KNEW I STILL LOVED YOU; or WHEN YOU ASKED ME, MY HEART WANTED TO SAY YES. Without using the second part of the sentence, it does not sound right.

In the next stanza / paragraph, I don’t think SUNK is the best word. SANK is the past tense and 'sunk' is the past participle. So, "The boat sank in yesterday's storm." On the other hand, "The boat had been sunk for decades." The 'sunk' version will always have other verb-forms attached to it as in the above example we have 'had been'.

I really love the closing line; it really wraps up the thought.

Overall, this is a really good poem. A few things to mention, but I love the flow, the use of powerful words like SORROW, CNCONDITIONALLY and ACHING.

Umm, wow you hit the spot on this one. I can really relate to it. This is how it is with me and my bf. I think I'll show this poem to him. The wording was perfact and full of love. I gave this poem a 5/5. I saw nothing that needed to be fixed.

And this is prrof why you got second place. It was absolutley amazing, and an awesome read. I really REALLY like it.
