This is the first poem I've ever written... So I don't know if it's good or not. Lol. Well, Enjoy.

Leaving

Fear grows within my heart,
Knowing the you’ll be really far.
I lock eyes with you in a final glimpse,
To find out it'll only last as long as a Solar Eclipse.
Your hair flows along in the wind,
I think i see the world going dim.
You fade into the light,
While I fight and fight and fight.
I embrace you one last time,
I hope that you had a good time.
My heart shattered into billions of pieces,
As my love took over my body.
I turned your face towards me,
To see pain and misery.
A single tear shed down your face,
I wanted to hold you and feel your heart race.
You started to slip from my grasp,
I wish that this night could forever last.
You went aboard the plane,
Sharing my misery and pain.
You smiled one last time,
before you watched me die.
I love you now and forever,
So don’t be afraid to come back and be my Beloved.
If you don't take a chance, you'll always live your life in regret, so let your heart show it's true colors and admit your feelings!

Tis not the blade that took your life, but the Assassin behind it.

When Reality has all but fallen away, recreate your own world

Hellow, Wesley! :) Nice poem you got here. Sad, but it's good. I noticed you kind of forced it to rhyme and sometime you repeated the same word in the same sentence, but as a begginer with poetry you did a good job. :) For the next one ('cause there should be a next one) have that in mind. ;) I hope this review helps... somehow. xD

Now... I know, I know... you love Nitpicks:

LOL.

=.= ...Every "I" should be uppercase if it's a pronoun, no matter where it's located.

Jalmoc wrote:You fade into the light,
While I fight and fight and fight.

I think saying fight so many times is... well, it kind of stops the poem and sounds more like a song. xD I would change for something like: "While I persistently fight." But that's just me. :)

I don't think the first letter of "beloved" should be uppercase.

I really liked this! I agree with Sol about the capitalization problems, but other than that I thought this was really good. Keep writing!

Cheers,

Hey guys, I really appreciate the reviews!! The reason that the capitalization is off is because I wrote this from my iPad lol.

This was great for a first poem. At times, the rhymes seemed a little forced, and it interrupted the flow of syllables. Such as:

Jalmoc wrote:I embrace you one last time,
I hope that you had a good time.


You used the same word to rhyme with, and the syllables don't exactly match up.

Jalmoc wrote:I turned your face towards me,
To see pain and misery.


Maybe you might insert a "the" or "your" in the second line? It would flow a bit better.

Other than those very few errors, great job! Keep writing!

Howdy, Wesley!! :D First things first, great poem. I remember you typing this in English Honors. Anyways, I don't have anything to nit-pick about, so keep writing those amazing stories.
