One Last Time

One last time,
Will you look at me again?
One last time,
Will you please just pretend?
That you loved me like
I thought you did.
You missed me like
I thought you would.
You kissed me like
You never could
Forget.

This poem is really simplistic, however this isn't a bad thing. Some great things come in small packages. Two adjectives to describe this: SHORT and SWEET.
For some reason I am particularly drawn to the very last word.
"Forget." It really sums every emotion up. The feeling of holding on to thin air and realizing that everything you thought was more was a figment of your heart, not even your imagination, as it was your heart talking not your mind.
Well done!
I love this poem.
Beautifully tragic.

Not bad; you have talent and the potential to create some beautiful, emotional poetry. This would be good, but the problem is that the subject is old and tired. That makes the poem too predictable - you know exactly what the author's going to say before they even say it. Perhaps if a little more thought was involved you could come up with some interesting, fresh language and new ideas to illustrate your point more creatively. This poem is like a shell; fill it in with some more work and you could have something great!!


Keep writing! :D

Thanks! Poetry's not really my thing, but I had to write it for a class :) I appreciate the feedback :)
