    Another great write! Except the flow was a little shaky on this one and in the last stanza you wrote:

    And I know now is too late

    You should have wrote:

    And I know now it is too late

    I think that way would have made it better. I also think you should tighten up the flow a little bit so it can be easier to read through. But over-all this is another wonderful poem. Welcome to my favorites 5/5

    Love

    Very nicely written, though some parts the rhyming sounded a little awkward. good job. you express emotions very vividly. especially in this line: "My heart can't help but smile" --4/5!

    It wasn't bad, i liked it. it could have flowed better and i think you forced the lines to rhyme, poems don't always have to rhyme. It just rocked the flow a bit.
    but a good write

    I really liked this poem. It's filled with so much emotion and you described everything so well in this. I absolutely loved this. The last stanza really brought the whole poem together and left me completely in love with it. Amazing job on this! 5/5

    Beautiful message.. but I'd have to agree with those who commented on the flow of the poem.. Such a great write.. I'm sure you still have things you may want to add to make this poem a masterpiece.. Made all the more special because I know why this poem was written.. Keep writing and stay the same!!

    Love it. I've been in your situation before, so I could relate. The rhyming seemed a little off now and again, but overall it was very, very well written. :)

    Great again!

    a few minor errors but nothing serious.
    All I hear 'tis because of treason
    ..huh?

    Never did I mean to hurt you
    And I know now it's too late
    What's left for me to do
    But to sit here and wait
    i think this does need some work.
    i do a thing where i read a stanza then i rewrite it the way i would rewrite it if it was my own.
    so heres my rewrite

    Never did I mean for you to get hurt
    But I know now that it's too late
    Please tell me what's left for me to do
    Except to just sit here and wait for you

    do with this what you will but i do this to show poeple options. i mean please do not copy this. but use if for maybe some guidance on what you could do. =]

    I liked this.

    I thought the flow was a little off in some places, but apart from that it was a wonderful write.
