Thinkin maybe

by lillie   Feb 11, 2013


You injected me with your sweet poison, left in me to die.
The kind of pain, hopelessly in love, for you I still cry.

The poison got to me, real quick, too soon.
Im up for hours thinking, sometimes, I see the sun turn into the moon.

Seasons changed, years passed me bye.
Your poison got addicting, you had me soaring through
heavens, quite high.

Your poison wore off, and disappeared forever.
After the poison was gone, I still wanted us together.

Hopelessly waiting, thinking about what we could have had.
My heart aches, our love is lost in a whirlpool, this situation is quite sad.

Truth be told, I think about you every once in a while.
When you come knocking my way, ill answer with a smile.

Cant forget the man you were to me,
but one day, I hope our love's set free.

One day our hearts will collide.
In your arms ill be able to hide.

    I like how you choose to rhyme.
    It gives your poetry an air of innocence and works very well.

    Interesting that you chose the word injected in a love poem, almost has no place, then we look at you calling posion 'sweet' and it all ties in and works well.
    I think you could trim line 4 back a little, the pace of the first three lines is very similar yet this is a little meaty.
    maybe this;

    Sometimes, up for hours thinking, see the sun turn into moon.

    same message but written more punchy.

    bye should be by in stanza three.

    rather than 'got addicting' how about 'was addictive'

    then with this line;

    My heart aches, our love is lost in a whirlpool, this situation is quite sad.

    trim back to

    Heart aches, love lost in a whirlpool, situation is sad.

    then with this line

    When you do come knocking my way, ill answer with a smile.

    just a little tweak to

    When you come knocking, i'll answer with a smile.

    Cant should be can't in next line

    then I would lose the repetition in the final two lines, it is not needed,

    One day our hearts will collide.
    In your arms i'll be able to hide

    just a few suggestions, your poem, tell me to 'do one' if you like.

    Nice sentiment throughout, just make the pace more even, maybe even introduce a syllable count and you will have a really good love poem.

    I feel the word poison is over used. its in everyone of the first four stanzas. maybe try other words like concoction or elixir?
