You I love.
You’re so sweet.
I’ve got butterflies that reach my feet
Though the feeling can conquer

My emotions.
My nerves,
Triggered by your words,
That I deserve to hear

To make me feel.
Make me feel similarly
Like when I’m out of line frequently
When I’m defensive,


But my point.
The one I’m trying to reach,
Can never be breached,
For it’s powerful

The way I place.
I place your love in my heart,
And we will never be apart
Because you,
I love.

awww this was really nice and sweet.
Triggered by your words,
That I deserve to hear

when i read this line, all i thought was why does this person deserve it over overs? not that it's bad, but that's the question it raised.
other than that, no complaints. it was a lovely read.

You had an interesting rhyme pattern going on here. I liked it. The thing is, some of the rhyming lines were so different in length that you lost the rhyming feel. I suggest you even up the lengths -- the easiest way to check that your lines are even is by counting the syllables.

Now, some of the lines didn't make sense, or were too vague to understand. I suggest you write this poem out in sentence form since it's an easy way to check that everything makes sense, especially punctuation-wise. In addition, adding more imagery and specific examples will help make this poem stronger. There are a lot of poems out there, so if you want your poem to shine, you'll need something about it to stand out, and having unique imagery is the easiest way to make a lasting impression.

But my point. [In lue of the previous verse, closing with this sentence makes the previous verse seem redundant, or misplaced. The topic of the previous verse doesn't lead into the second verse topic that well.]
The one I’m trying to reach,
Can never be breached, [Feels like another weak attempt to make words rhyme. It's a fairly illustrated verb but, to me, it doesn't pack quite the punch I was expecting.]

What I like the most about this poem is its structure. I like how you take sentences and break them apart, thus forming new verses. Made me think of someone describing their feelings for someone, nearing their description's end only to find more things to talk about! I'm not sure if this is an adequate review (I'm not that good at this), but hopefully what I commented on was more beneficial than not.
Yeah .. I'm not cool enough to have a witty signature so .. *points down* .. move on to the next guy..
