Before I Forget

Beautiful imagery and a very sweet piece altogether.. I love the emotion in this.. I always love sweet poems like that addressed to people. Excellent piece. c:

Aw that's a sweet poem! I like how you did the line breaks, and your descriptions are really good, too.

#0080FF ">I need you to know,
when the sun's eye brazens the treetops
at the right angle,
or when the too-white moon gapes
at all beneath it that decays,
Everything--your light, my dreams--
rushes back from the depths of me
into the air.

hello!

I liked the images of this poem, that definitely showed us where you're coming from, even if they are quite surreal and taking contrasts to the extreme - I like it. It avoids any terminal cliches too. The subject of the poem seemed strong, but not strong enough. Sure, you're putting across these surreal and dreamy images to make the feeling seem like a rarity and the thing/person you're aiming it at feel unique and fabulous, but the emotion isn't there. There's just the rare feeling put across. You need to firm it in, add in lines that contrast each other - say mentioning bad things but how you fall for things like that. I mean you can keep it all in the idea of implicit and metaphor use in language, but I feel it just needs a bit more umphh. You know? I'm sorry it's quite vague, but it's only a suggestion.
