GOD DAMMIT! I accidentally clicked 4! :( its a 5/5. i like this. its that lust isnt the same as love. and sometimes our crushes or what we think we really want, should stay at that. because we may not end up liking it when we find its true self.. |
Lol, it's okay, I have no care in the world for ratings. The comment is what I really look forward to :P I've mis-clicked a 4 once too, on one of Poetess' poems, so I know exactly how you're feeling! I do like this one, though it at times is a bit clunky I'd say. Better than most of my 2007 poems! |
I like all your work! old and new! :) |
It's secretly a 5 ;) |

This is excellent and it reminds me of a quote I once heard: "Love is what's left when passion's fire has been dampened" |
A beautiful quote indeed, and the truth. This isn't my best piece, but it's also a piece of reality that all-too-often I try to disregard. Good advice, at every level! |

S, I love this one. It's so beautifully done. I love the rhyming, the structure and the thought that's gone into it... Such an enthralling piece with so much emotion connected to it. |
I need to start writing more about love! I don't miss the hurt of love, but the dreaming of it is quite nice. I don't even do that anymore! |

Stephen, I liked this a lot. The whole poem had a really nice flow and it told a beautiful story, sad, of unfortunately what can occur often in relationships. That initial rush fades out and either it blooms to more or just crashes and burns. Well done- |
Chemically-induced romance makes it quite difficult to predict which way it will go once the chemicals start wearing off. |
