Homesick

Hello there!

Here to review.

So, I apologize in advance if ever there's going to be a repetition around here or if you might see this review vague. It's because I'm writing this one almost midnight. Anyways, on to the review.


First thing I want to clarify is how you misinterpret about capitalization. Actually, you don't need to capitalize every first letter of each line. Also, I would have expected this to be something more unique, 'cause it's really hard to make a unique poem especially when it comes to a general theme: love. Emotions are here but just like I've said earlier I want something compelling about your character, the feelings of this poem. So, just spice this up. Use good set of imageries and try exploring on new words. I tell you, it would be really fun to do and not only that but it would also increase your writing skills.

Hope I helped,
Yuri

I really like the title. It gave me a different view on the poem. Like this person makes you feel that you're at home, that they complete a part of you. It was very creative.

I would like to see more imagery though, because that would increase the beauty of it. And maybe some more detail.

You took my heart,
You kept me whole andnow I’m broken, withered and old. I like this right here, withered and old. I can see where you're coming from.

We’d sit in the woods for hours, Could you possibly give some scenery here? The colors of the trees, the sounds surrounding you. It might seem unrelated, but it would make me feel like I'm there, like I'm you.
Not thinking about anything but theclueless things in life.
How much we’d miss each other if we’d go…to a better place.
Still I remember your smile,
Your eyes, your laughter.
I miss it.

Thinking back on the days,
How it would have been if I stayed.
But I destroyed you,
I left you and somehow you left me.
Restrained from the world,
Lost without a soul.
I need you now more than ever.
I miss you.

Thank you to all who reviewed this, you all helped a lot.

This is not the kind of poem I would usually read or review, but I will try my best seeing you only have one short review so far. General comments:

You took my heart,
You kept me whole between this you should make a whole new line, "but", or a period and capital letter.now I’m broken, Sorry, but this my be the most overused phrase when it comes to poems about love. Spice it up. withered and old. Is the person you are writing about really withered and old or is that a metaphor?

These two lines don't seem relevant to the rest of the poem. We’d sit in the woods for hours,
Not thinking about anything, but clueless things in life.
How much we’d miss each other if we’d go…to a better place. I am not sure what this line means.
Still I remember your smile,
Your eyes, your laughter.
And I miss it. I think this line would have may more impact if you drop the "And"

Thinking back on the days,
How it would have been if I stayed. Maybe this should be a question because he doesn't really know what it would have been like.
But I destroyed you,
I left you and somehow you left me. Who did the actual leaving? You really can't both leave each other because you state that he left first.

Beautiful poem, only problem was that you didn't need to leave the space between go and to in the third line of the second stanza. Nice job! =)
