From the day that I met you
Until the day that I die
My love for you
Goes deeper
And never goes blind.
The smile I showed you
And the laughter I let slip
Were authentic and true
And I never did fib.
You said you didn't believe me
You said you didn't want to try
My heart once full of love and happiness
Now full of heartbreak and lies
I thought I could talk to you
And tell you everything new
The things that hurt me
The things that make me wanna cry
You made me feel better
And just wanna be by your side
You said you would never hurt me
You said you would never try
But I guess that was all a lie
Because you hurt me
More then anyone has tried
I just wanna die
You left me
Erased me from your mind
You thought I could move on
But to tell you the truth
I tried!
You made me so happy
You never made me cry
But now
All I am wondering
Is why?

Your comment was posted, but it wasn’t long enough to count as a review. Reviews need about four complete sentences (at least 250 characters). Try writing another review that explains your thoughts in more detail — the author will appreciate it, and you’ll earn points for it.
Please don't take this too offensively, but I've seen this all before.
I know this kind of thing is popular and I also know why. People (especially young adults/teens) can really relate to it, which is good. Unfortunately, everybody writes things just like this. Also, your rhyme scheme was weak and wishy-washy, and to be honest I didn't get the emotion off of it. But obviously this is just my opinion.
Keep writing,

Why what? Why did this happen? Or why did you let this happen(you might not have but that's another side of that line.)
Over all:
Rhyme, it's not really needed. And it might even govern your poem so much that it ruins it.
I think you need to show how this happens with the actions that made you think these things. This seems moreso like your reaction to what happened, I'm sorry but that is boring. We need to see those actions so we can have our own reactions.
Also, you need to use some more similes and metaphors / personification or whatever poetic device that you feel you can use best to help get your ideas across.
Being direct is boring, there's nothing for us to think about or figure out. Those help to make your poem good.
Good luck,keep writing.

Hello Colie, Here for a quick review!
I have to say I absolutely loved that. It was the perfect way to start the poem. It got my attention I'll assure you that. Although you did a good job at actually writing down the feelings of the MC, I'm sure you can try to put more emotion behind it. Make the reader sympathize more for your MC, because right now it's kind of just like , "Aw, her hearts broken" .You have to make the reader want to rip the wrong doers heart outImpression:
The poem flowed quite well. It was about a topic that many can relate to and you did a good job executing that. The poem has potential.
The bit of rhyming the poem had didn't take away from the poem, but it wasn't completely necessary either.
Hope you'll use my correction when and if you edit this. It'll be such an amazing piece if you do (: -Imaginemymind!
