I wrote this for my special someone and I'm not to sure about it. Any comments would be welcome.
You open the doors
You let me in
Your way of saying you love me
You wink at me
Make me grin, you really do love me
I dance in the rain
You think I’m insane, but still you love me
I lose my mind, I can’t keep time,
And still you love me.
We fight, we yell, I told you to go to hell,
But still you love me.
So on this day, where cupid reigns,
I say “I Love You”
I’ll love you to the end, you’ll always be my friend and my love, to the end.

Hey I'm Amie and I'll be reviewing for you today
I don't think I need to bother with grammar and such as I think this has been dealt with by the lovely reviewers before me. I also agree with Kitty15 about the repetition of the 'love me' segments. I can kind of understand where you were coming from when you wrote it but when I'm reading it I'm just getting irritated by the repetition and thinking 'okay I think you covered that.' In fact I think the poem would be better if you took them all out (except the last one). OR if you did get rid of that one also, which I think is probably the best option then I think it'd be best changing the next line to 'But on this day, when cupid reigns.'
I like the part with 'we fight, we yell' but I think it goes too far with the hell part. Besides I think the rhyming here distracts away from the emotions of the poem and makes it feel less real. I think maybe you should have something else here, maybe you could even revert back to the very beginning by having 'slammed shut doors'...or something of the sort
With the poem as a whole I'm not entirely sure if you're going for a rhyming scheme or not because it seems pretty inconsistent at the moment.
To me the ending feels a little rushed and to the point. Personally I don't think she needs to explicitly say 'I love you' just as he hasn't for her to know. I'd suggest something like...
OR something along those lines. Lovely poem though, some really nice emotions and cute little mannerisms that make it feel real. Let me know if you redraft and want me to have another read-though as I'd be happy to
Hey there! So this is really cute and I rather love the simplicity. I'm sure whoever you wrote it for would be delighted
I do have a few criticisms concerning grammar and what not though. You should be really careful how you punctuate your poem as that tells the reader how to read your poem, which lines are connected to which and can clear up any of those little misunderstandings. Here's a line by line:
Very sweet ending. Like I said, I like this and the criticism I've given you is more a thing to take into consideration in the future. It isn't necessary to actually change this poem since it's such a personal one from you to one of your loved ones. It should help you improve your poetry in general though.
Let me know if you've got any questions!

I love this poem, not too long and not too short and very true. Anyone who has been in love can relate to the love hate situation. Its described perfectly so Bravo to you! and do keep up the good work.

Hello there.
All in all a good poem. It rhymed at some places and didn't rhyme at some. And that isn't good.
Keep writing.
Hi,
I really like this poem, it's kind of tradditional with a realistic approach. Keep Writing. BTW love the pic.
