What I feel you are to me!

Post by Eric » Sat Jun 09, 2012 9:44 pm

I remember how we use to talk ... you had helped me with my scare
You showed me that I had some worth ... you had shown me how to care
When I was down and feeling sad ... you found me a light to grasp
I told how you made me feel ... you didnt have to ask
We need to find a way ... to get back that fire that we knew
And all things we did back then ... things we did to make it through
I would not walk this world with out you ... your the reason I still breathe
You are the only reason ... I remove my sword from its own sheathe
My skies have darkend with out you at times .. I need to feel you in my heart
Maybe what I am looking for is a simple heart kick start! :)
I want to surround your images ... I want you to always see me there
When things get tough just look around ... I want to help to make it clear
When your skies open up and starts pouring rain ... please hear and understand
I can make it go away my dear ... with a few waves from my loving hand
I would never let anything come and break our love apart
If you need it hawled away ... trust in me to be your cart
I will do anything, as I feel you know .... just to keep you wrapped in me
Give you all the shade you need ... as I plant for you, a tree
Please do not take this wrong, I know we're doing fine
But sometimes I need to know I am in your heart ... because you are in mine!

:hello: You have some beautiful lines in there, like "I'll give you all the shade you need. I'll plant you a tree." And, if you need it hauled away, I'll be your cart." But these great lines get lost in your too many rambling sentences. But that is just my opinion. However, I would suggest you edit and shorten this poem. Also you could put some space breaks between some of the lines. Give the reader a chance to pause. :thumbsup:

Much tighter indeed, Eric! Without losing what you were going for in the end. That is what a re-write is supposed to do.
