Words from my heart

brilliant.


truthful, honest, and simple without being clumsy.

Well done.


i kind of love this.

Awesome poem. There was good imagery and emotionally...not intense but along the lines of that. I thought the rhythm was a bit awkward in places, not a big problem because it was only a line or two.

Your rhyming is very good, it isn't forced or anything. It seems natural in this poem.

Nolan pointed out punctuation-where commas and periods go and where capitalization is needed.

I really like this poem, it's superb!!

Keep Writing!

Absolutely wonderful. It's a little heart-breaking, only because I'm feeling that right now. Its completely fantastic and your wording was incredible. You captured exactly what I want to say to *that guy* because it feels like no matter how many words I could say to *him*, none of them could capture the feeling quite like you did. Its that simple, "I love you and I miss you And I want you to stay." Thank you for that excellent piece, its truely wonderful.

After reading it a 2nd time, the last line might read a little better if instead of saying "And I want you to stay" it seems like s/he has already left, so it might help to say "And I'm wishing you would stay." However that is just a tiny word change and you might want a 2nd opinion before you change a thing; I'd hate to ruin such a great piece.

the only thing that was wrong that i noticed to be a problem was punctuation. and nolan already took care of that.

the imagery and thought behind this poem was very beautiful...very...graceful.

the lines flowed with elegant ease. and the emotion was deep, strong, and very clear.

great poem!

I like it. It's very simple, and yet elegant. But most of all, it's VULNERABLE. The poem feels intimate and "real," and I feel as if I've been given a gift.
Thank you.

i liked this.
very elegant.

it needs to be punctuated, though:

Whispers and song lyrics
sound so much better
than the words i put down
when i wrote you that letter .

How many syllables does it take
to make you understand?
I can't write you a symphony,
or anything that grand.

But, I'll give you these words-
words we've both said before-
and hope they are enough,
because I have nothing more.

Let go of any grudge-
and hold my hand instead-
because your heart
wasn't the only one that bled.

I am wilting without your voice,
and I'm missing the way
you could make everything better;
just with the words you'd say.

So, here are the only words
that are left for me to say:
I love you and I miss you.
and I want you to stay


other than that, I liked it.
the only problem I found, other than that, was punctuation.

I really like this poem, the imagery and what it's about. It's the heartache of a breakup without being cliche.

The only thing I didn't like about this poem, however, is the lack of punctuation. I know that sometimes the lack is a format thing, but I find it really hard to read a poem like that. Capitalize the I's and at least add in the bare bones of punctuation.
