%% I tried my hand at writing free verses for a time %%
I had a dream of him—
We were living together;
But separated by miles.
Each day,
I was able to look
At his broad smile;
Every day,
I was looking at
My lone face in the mirror.
I was waiting in the evening
At the door,
For his return;
I was waiting on my deathbed,
for a miracle
To see him again.
It was a new beginning;
It never ended.
It was only a dream;
It would always remain as a dream.

As a final thought, this was an okay poem. One thing I wasn't fond of was how you talked about beauty in the end, because that was mighty predictable. It left the poem off with a tame needing that just didn't hit my heartstrings. It didn't have the strongest ending, which dampens the poem quite a bit. It wasn't a bad poem, but it could be better since it has quite a bit of potential and sorry for two blank comments. It just happen due to bad network connection.
It's beautiful
Hey Prakash,
Myjaspercat here for a review for you...
I want to begin with a little bit of advice. I noticed that you have a little issue with the formatting of the poem, (and I don't really know if it is intentional or not but I am going to point it out anyway). What I am getting at is the space between each line in the stanzas and the extra space in-between stanzas. To eliminate that and make it look like how it is below, you need to 'shift-enter' instead of just hitting 'enter'. Now if you already knew that and you think I was out of place saying this, then I am sorry; I just wanted to help. Anyway, on with the review...
Ok, so overall I did like the idea of your poem, I thought it to be very interesting and I think that you could do a lot with it. Also for a free verse poem, (Is this your first free verse?) I think you did very well. Though I do have some suggestions...
For one I feel like you could be more descriptive. I want to know more on what this man looks like, what you truly see when you look at him. I want to know what you really saw when you looked in the mirror and saw yourself. Do you see where I am getting at? Elaborate more, give your reader something to really sink there teeth into.
The second, and last thing which ties in with the first, is that you need to make this just a little bit longer. I wont say anything else, since it does tie in with point one, but just drag this out a little more.
Anyways, I hope I helped and if you have any questions feel free to ask. Good luck and continue writing ---Myjaspercat.

Thank you for your review
Yeah, this is my first free verse. And thanks for your suggestions. It would definitely hone my writings 
your welcome. And its nice that you are starting to write free verse, I personally prefer it since it lets me have more freedom, I think you'll like it.
This is a very good romantic melancholic poem. i like the way u used rhyme at some points of the poem. i myself had written many poem on love and separation. I like the intense dramatic mood you brought in the poem at point where u wait in deathbed ,wait at door and wish if he returned.then the feeling that with him living together,his coming back broadly smiling is just a mere dream. i like the poem alot. keep writing such poems.
Thank you for the review:)
