If you should say no,
as many have before,
I ask only one thing,
a friendship still remains.

So now the question,
one that has always been.
Will you, on this day,
give your heart as Valentine.

Everybody pretty much covered what I wanted to say. It's okay, but sort of vague, I think.

--Seree.

I liked this a lot, but it could use some work. You might want to check where your commas go though. And add more beat or feeling into it.

Overall I could sense the beat/feel of it too.

I actually think you sould make it rime, that would be a bit nicer
but it is nice, I admit,
The last paragraph is veryvery nice, but if there was a rime anyone could be your valentine...
but the idea is preety nice...
I liked it, but there are things to improve...
I hope this is usefull...
bye...

Not much can be said
of a crush that I have.
It comes and it goes,
but It should be known.

True feelings can confuse,
ones heart they consume,
but if a chance is given,
then all will be known. - Nice repetition.

If you should say no,
as many have before,
I ask only one thing,
a friendship still remains. - Shouldn't you put a question mark?

So now the question,
one that has always been.
Will you, on this day,
give your heart as Valentine. - Again, use a question mark =)

Ah.. you could have written this better, but its alrightt as is. The flow is a little off, so I would recommend you read it aloud to see what's going on there. And don't forget proper punctuation so the reader can understand what the speaker is REALLY saying. =) You're a good writer. Keep at it!

I LIKED IT, IT REALLY CAUGHT MY ATTENTION EVEN THOUGH YOU COULD WORK ON YOUR PUNCTUATION.

A Life Left Behind

At last I am calm,
stressed released from my being.
Thoughts are at rest
and I feel so alone.
Peace at last,
a life left behind.

The tree line above
leaving shadow below.
Light shines through the top
like water through a strainer.
The rays bask my face
in warmth and glory.

I heave a sigh of relief
being able to finally let go.
The airs fresh and clean,
a crisp breeze across my face.
All is quiet,
the world is left for me.

The birds don't sing,
not a bug is buzzing.
The wind would blow,
the leave never rustle.
Nothing around me,
but peace and serenity.

This is the one I LOVED!

So what's the name of this "chrush":P
I'm kidding !
Anyway the poem its self is ...well...not bad but not amazing!
The idea is perfect, well wait what am i saying nothing is perfect...Okay it's a good idea.
I enjoyed reading it but it could be SO much better.
I've read one of your other story's (I think it was yours)
And it was really strong!
I was almost in tears!
It was a really wonderful story (if it was yours)
I'm going to find the story again and make sure it was yours:P
Anyway I'm blabbering.
So it wasn't the best to your abilitys!
But i did like the poem.

Not much can be said
of a crush that I have.
It comes and it goes,
but it (took away the capital 'I') should be known.

True feelings can confuse,
one's (added an apostrophe) heart they consume,
but if a chance is given,
then all will be known.

If you should say no,
as many have before,
I ask only one thing: (colon)
a friendship still remains.

So now the question,
one that has always been.
Will you, on this day,
give your heart as Valentine? (question mark)

You read my other poem, she turned me down, hard too.

Who is this crush your talking about? Make up a name that Rhymes it wpould be neat. That is all I have to say. SimonCowellLuver

Hey, pieman! What's up? Haven't seen you around very much!

My edits are in BOLD.

Not much can be said
of a simple crush.

A simple crush is too... simple. And the second line didn't follow the beat. Read it out loud. I would change it to this:

Not much can be said
about a little crush.

If you use my line, the flow will be smoother.

They come and [they] go,
but [all] should be known.

If you use those corrections, I think it'll work better.

True feelings can confuse[s], [/s] [no comma]
one's heart they consume,

but if a chance is given,
then all will come to light.

[And] If you should say no,
as many have before,

I ask only one thing,
a friendship can remain.

The last line can be done many ways, and none of them are the way you have it.

'I ask only one thing,
may a friendship still remain?'

OR

'I ask only one thing.
A friendship to remain.'
