I only see you rarely,
But hope to see you soon.
boring. no offense, but telling me that you're the sun and i'm the moon means absolutely NOTHING unless you back it up w/ some imagery...or at least deeper symbolism. show, don't tell.
the last two lines of the above section are also pretty bland and sound like they're written by a small kid.
Like night turns to day,
Warm turns to cold.
My heart is like this
It never gets old.
oh no. night --> day. warm ---> cold. think of something a little more original. your readers aren't idiots, they want to delve into your mind a little deeper than what you're giving us
We are so far,
Yet so close.
I am the patient,
You are my dose.
again...last two lines are generic and actually made me laugh out loud because how cliched that is. far, close? this is incredibly shallow so far.
When we are together,
My rays shine brighter.
My heart skips a beat,
As you hold me tighter.
more cliches. rays shining, hearts beating, holding tight. this sounds like a love-sick preteen writing about her crush of the day, not real, true, soulful love.
I have a new theory,
It is very clever.
The Sun will be with the Moon,
For now and forever
oh really? how did you come to that conclusion? don't just throw your reader for a loop...you said earlier you were very far with your love. then what's this nonsense about?
also, cliched again.
I am the Sun
And you are the Moon.
Our hearts beat in sequence,
And to the same tune.
this stanza was actually decent - the first decent stanza in this whole poem, which isn't good.
hope i helped. sorry if i was a little harsh...in the end, it'll be good for your poem.
