My Love Letter

If this were a sappy love letter

I would start with:

Your eyes are as blue

as the skies above

as I think of you

with words of love.


If this were a traditional love letter

I would start with:

My Dear,


If this were an illicit love letter

I would start with:

Meet me

where we won't be found.


But this is my love letter

and I would start with

calling out your name

so that the whole world could hear it,

if I only

knew it.

This is great great great great great! I love how you show what you would do if your love letter was different. But what I love most is when you say 'I would call out your name - if only I knew it." That shows that there is a longing to understand more of the person. I love this and I really think you should do more poems! Sorry this review is brief but I need to go!

Wow, okay, this was actually really good!
Personally, I thought this was a great, short poem you wrote. I don't know about others, but I liked it.

One thing? The rhyming! You actually rhymed! Some poems on here lack rhyming, which is sometimes disturbing and distracting.

There line I think I liked the most from this was:

so that the whole world could hear it,
if I only
knew it.

I think you wrote this one nicely, and it just sounds very good, by sad too! And that's good; you want the readers to have feelings, you want them to feel emotional when reading a poem.

Really, I thought this was a splendid poem. I don't read them much, so I don't have much expeirence with reviewing them, but I thought it was fantastic!

Hope I helped! <3
