Oh this was great.Each stanza was well written.Oh and I love the title.Good choice of words.
Take care

Gem,

This was great. Loved the word and choices in your phrasing. And As it has been said before, that's how love hits sometimes. It just pops up out of nowhere and knocks you over.

You are trully one of the lucky ones who finds it and holds tight to the reigns.

Wonderful Job

Always,
Jeannie

I like ur poem alot your a good writer

"Finding love in this lonely world
Was like finding a needle in a haystack"

This really touched me the most because it is so deep and so true! 5/5

Beautifully written love poem, with great imagery and good choice of words. You expressed emotions in it excellently. The ending is very captivating and effective (the last stanza)
My favorite stanza is:

-Something that just wasn't worth the effort
The countless disappointments
The tears...
The hurt...
Weighing down the fragile heart
When something that felt like love
Turned out to be a sham
A red herring-

Well done, 5/5 from me

Awehh..I loved this ! The poem was full of imagery, especially the first stanza..and it really was written well. Love is very hard to find, and you have written out that journey well lol, glad you got him !

5.5

Beautiful piece. Your love shines through your words in this write.

But even pipe dreams can become a reality
Love can find you when you least expect it
When you cease looking
It springs out of nowhere
Like a long lost friend
A best friend
A lover

You know I am a believer in true love and I know like me you have found that :)
Excellent!
Love Cindy

Wow, that's an absolutely amazing and beautiful poem! I love it. It's so true.. Good job! Take care and keep on writing.

Amazing Gem! So glad for you to write again. This piece was different than your others, but amazing with it's metaphors and comparisons...good flow to it too. Sometimes with free verse, I too, find it hard on how to break up the words into stanzas, but you did it beautifully! Great job!
