For the poetic people out there:
I am something harder than steel,
And softer than silk and feather
I am made to heal,
Or used for better.
People search me, they find me,
But if they do, they'll never have me;
I am unstoppable, until death,
I never fade in time, I stay upright
Except if I wasn't being held on tight.
I am brighter than sun and stars,
The only thing not kept in jars,
No one can understand me,
When I am only a word.
But once you get me,
I will be to you a sword,
You express me sometimes unfairly,
In the heart of all creatures, human to bee.
Stronger in the darkest of nights,
The strangest of lights.
For the more material people:
I am what merges two lives into one :
A first life made of light and happiness, love and fun
A last life made of darkness, pieces cut out from the night
But when these two are put together below new light,
And fusion together like honey in molten chocolate
They create a melody that would melt the hardest of hearts.

Hey there! Plume here with a short little review! I'm not super great at reviewing poems, but here goes! (Hopefully something will be helpful.)
I really adore the concept of this! It's so clever. I've always been a big fan of riddles. One of my favorite things about this was that you were so descriptive with the way you showed things. I think I may have liked the piano one a bit better (I'm not a poetic person, if you couldn't tell.) The personification of the piano is really nice. I love how you describe the keys as "lives." One thing I wondered about was maybe incorporating some piano language, like sharp or flat or key, but not in the original piano-related meaning. It would create some fun little wordplay, while also giving clues.
I thought your rhyme scheme was interesting, though I wondered about its effectiveness at some points. I feel like as I was reading, I'd be getting into the rhythm, and then you'd change it. For example: your piano poem is short, and you rhyme the first two lines, and then the second two. I thought I was getting myself into a sort of "couplet" scenario, but then the last two lines didn't rhyme! It was a little disappointing, at least for me. Your first poem also kind of does the same thing. You start reading with an ABAB pattern, and then you change it up at the fifth line. I feel like that impedes the flow a bit, and doesn't let the reader fully appreciate your nuances and the beauty of the description.
I thought these lines were kind of confusing. I'm not a poetic person, so maybe this is just above me, but I feel like they kind of contradict one another. Now that I know the answer to the poem, it seems to me like it's saying "People search and find love, but if they find love, they'll never get love." I feel like people who find love already have love?? It seemed to be a little contradictory. Even if it was for the sake of rhyming/sounding good, I feel like it should make sense, you know?
Overall: lovely poems! I really enjoyed both of them. I hope you're able to get something useful from this review. Hope to read more from you in the future!
Hi there,
thanks for reviewing my riddles ! For the piano part, I actually did want to talk about something else than the keys to give clues, but I'm not a pianist .<.
So for the quote u put in ur review, it actually means that some people try to find love and try very hard to do so, but if they do force people to love them or they force love on themselves, they'll never truly know what it means to love and be loved. I admit it's pretty confusing, but it basically means that love should come to you naturally
thanks a lot I'll try using ur advice in future works
Hello. This will not be an exact rview but kinda like that only. I really liked the riddles. I like this type of poetry riddles in general... they have a deep meaning to convey within a few words. Well I am gonna try both of these riddles as I am both a poetic lover and a practical thinker. The first one is love(just a guess. The answer is still unknown.)
The second one- um... talking about some... yes! I got it! It is a piano still not sure of it. I would like you to know the right answer.
Bye!!
Waiting for the answer
Dude how did u do it xD
u got all of them right %uD83D%uDC4F
really! random guess
Is it love? Also, just gotta say, your poetry skills are superb. All the symbols made sense once I figured out the answer. I can tell you've really thought about love, or whatever the answer is.
