Quick poem written off the top of my head

by cristal   Jul 7, 2011


The way i feel about you
Could never be explained
And to think before i met you
I thought my heart could not be tamed

I know that your not perfect
As i don't expect you to be
But you love me for who i am
And that makes you perfect for me

You're not just my lover
You're my family, and best friend
I dont care what people think of us
I will love you to the end

I will always be beside you
Through the good times and the bad
Cause all your problems are halved
When you share them with a friend

They say good men are hard to find
There are few and far between
Well I must be a lucky girl
Cause it looks like one found me

    One thing I would suggest is to not capitalize the beginning of each line unless it's grammatically correct. It would help the flow and bring a more mature feel to the piece :)

    Also, I would go through and capitalize all your I's. You have some capitalized, some not, and it throws the "look" off.

    "I know that your not perfect"

    The "your" here should be you're :)

    Another thing is the rhymes are a bit off. You have a solid rhyme pattern in the first three stanzas, but the last two don't keep up. A good key is to be consistent with the rhyme so it won't interrupt the flow. I know you wrote this quickly, so you may want to revisit that and see if you can make some changes to keep the rhyme scheme consistent :)

    Another piece of advice would be to give it a proper title. A title is what really brings people in (the whole judging a book by it's cover thing lol), and what you have here doesn't really draw you in much unfortunately.

    The message and basis of the poem itself is good. Your feelings are strong and apparent, and it does have emotion, which is another key element in any poetry (for me, anyhow!). I like your ending stanza the best, it rings so true. When you've found that good man, you are on top of the world and the luckiest girl alive. You've captured that feeling really well :) Nice job.
