Shall I admire you,
From afar,
When no one is looking,
When you are busy,calm and focused on work,
While you sing,I shall admire your voice,
While you talk, I shall admire your words,
While you write,I shall admire your writing,

I shall admire you even when no one is around,
I shall be with you until the world’s end,
I shall appreciate your presence everyday I can
I shall love you every chance I get,
So,let me ask again,
Can I admire you?🥀😭

It's cute ngl! There is a really quiet, understated beauty to this poem that hits you right away. In a world where romantic poetry often swings toward heavy drama, this piece chooses to sit in the small, unglamorous moments instead—capturing that soft, steady affection that comes from watching someone completely absorbed in their work. The repeating lines work like a gentle heartbeat, giving the whole piece a patient, reassuring rhythm.

​That said, a few subtle adjustments could help the writing land with even greater impact. The pacing occasionally feels a bit hurried where phrases run together, such as in "busy, calm and focused"; breaking those lines apart or adding deliberate punctuation would give the reader room to pause and absorb each feeling. Similarly, while the emotion is clear, the descriptions lean on fairly general terms like "words" and "voice." Pinning down one or two concrete visual details—like the quiet hum of a room or the distinct scratch of a pen—would ground the atmosphere and make the moment feel far more vivid.

​Even so, the poem's gentle shift at the end remains its strongest element. Turning all that steady devotion into a soft, open-ended question shows a deep respect for boundaries, transforming the piece from a declaration into an invitation. With a bit of refinement to its cadence and imagery, this already sincere poem could leave an even deeper, more lasting impression.

Hello! Am moon,
I really enjoyed reading this. Your poem feels so gentle and sincere, especially the idea of admiring someone quietly without asking anything from them. I really liked the repetition of “I shall admire…” because it gives the poem a soft, devoted rhythm, and the lines about admiring their voice, words, and writing make the feeling feel very personal. The ending, “Can I admire you?”, is simple but effective because after all those promises, it turns into a vulnerable little question.
One thing you could consider improving is the flow in a few places. Some lines are quite long, so breaking them into shorter lines or adding a little punctuation could make the poem breathe more naturally. You could also experiment with adding one or two more unique images or metaphors, since most of the poem directly tells us what the speaker feels. That could make the emotion even more vivid.
But honestly, the quiet devotion in this piece is beautiful, and I think your strongest quality here is how genuine it feels. Keep writing and exploring this style—you have a lovely way of expressing soft emotions.

Thx will consider your suggestions
