There she is
His golden girl
The one, my crush is holding
She twists her hair
and lets him know
she's got no better place to go.
He pulls her up
and tells her straight
it can't go on between them.
She looks at him and shakes her head
and tells him -their love's never dead.
He walks away without a glance
Goodbye to Misses fancy pants!
He walks my way
I hang my head
to hide my joyous grin
When I realize his hands in mine
And suddenly i'm lost in time.
He's kissing me
no better place
then in his arms,
his warm embrace
My mind-its in a whirl
Its screaming loudly
GOLDEN GIRL!

Heheh. I didn't quite understand the title until I reached the end of the poem - I like what you did, taking on the phrase "I feel golden" and incorporating it into your writing. Definitely brought a smile. My only suggestion would be to add a bit more descriptive words and imagery, some punctuation, and to break up the poem into a couple stanzas. Again, they're just suggestions... whether you want to consider them is your choice since it's your writing.
Good work.
I love this, its structure and rhythm is fantastic and kept me reading to the end.
Plus believe me when I say you have written what I have imagined happening many a time, perhaps one day it actually will. Ah well.
But... Carrying on with the review, I found this a really strong piece but i do think maybe a slight bit more descriptive imagery would help strengthen it.
Thank you. To be honest I don't think its THAT great but glad you like it.
xD
Hello again Kakagirl. This was AWESOME, needless to say. Anyway, the rhyming was amazing and I could grasp the storyline of the poem instantly. Golden Girl is an awesome phrase. Anywho. I love how you set it out, so its only bout four - six words a line, which makes it unique. better than I could do, any day.
Keep writing!

Ugh, the word crush bugs me. Suggestions?
Thanks for reviewing anyway guys.. This is my first ever poem! I'll kelp workin on it!! Thanks kaka x
Here to review as requested! To start, nitpicks.
This has a pretty good flow, but the punctuation was inconsistent. It wasn't only that you chose not to use it (which is okay in and of itself). It was that you used it sometimes, but not always, which came across as sloppy. Also, at first the whole lover and golden girl thing was confusing. Actually, it still is. Why was the lover with the golden girl if he was really with the MC? Or were the lover and the MC together, or what? It just doesn't make that much sense.
But, overall, a nice piece. Keep writing.

O.K., all this poem made me feel is that the girl who the guy likes now is really mean. The girl who used to have the guy is nice. It probably isn't what you were going for. I just wish that the narrator would have some thought for the girl. Because of this I want background information why does the narrator hate the "golden girl" so much? What is so bad about her? You didn't really show us if the golden girl was bad or not. Was she enticing or lying?
Besides for that I really like this poem and really can't help you.
