How easily those three words slip
from my mouth, sweetly to your lip.
You kiss me as you always do
everything seems so simple with you.
There are no secrets hidden deep
not mumbling worries as you sleep.
How can this be? Still I can't understand
why you're so easy going and unplanned,
Life isn't as simple as you make it appear
Even the happy people have a depth full of fear.
So please don't be afraid to let your feelings show,
I'm here for you, I promise, I refuse to let you go.

Well, I'm not really one for poems that rhyme, simply because in serious poems, they can really take away from the poem itself. However, even though I didn't particulary care for this type of poem, your rhyming scheme was good and nothing sounded rushed until this part:
Even the happy people have a depth full of fear.
So please don't be afraid to let your feelings show,
I'm here for you, I promise, I refuse to let you go.

Perhaps you should take some of those words out...they seemed like run on sentences.
when there's nowhere to go, it's time to grow up.

I liked reading this. It's kind of sweet.
I liked these lines very much:
"Life isn't as simple as you make it appear
Even the happy people have a depth full of fear."
Nice one!!!

Hi There, Fire! :) I'm Sol, and I'm going to review for you today. Image I like the poem, the ending was amazing. But, you should check out the puntation. In my opinion some commas would be nice. :)

Add a comma.

Same. :)

I think that comma should be a period.
