    Another excellent write from a good poet. I loved the flow and the choice of words you used. The structure was good as well.

    I felt this could of been a even more powerful and emotional write if you had used puncuation within this poem. Periods, comma's, exlamation points, etc.

    Overall a fantastic write with such great emotion.

    Peace, Joe

    Yet another great poem. This one is short and sweet but at the same time extremely descriptive. I love your use of imageryand I am yet again amazed by your ability to rhyme. :)

    "more than the sum of every mans greed"

    That line is just... beautiful. What a way to describe love!!!! You cannot possibly be single!! haha!!

    There's an itching, aching down in my soul
    stopping my heart from ever being whole
    `"Itching" -- a definite different chioce of word that's typically used. I like it .

    an un-avowed desire that begs to be told
    is a secret that I can no longer withhold.
    `Hm, sometimes when I read it, "withhold" sounds too long, and yet when I re-read it, sometimes it doesn't, so I don't know what to think. But I adore adore that first line. "Un-avowed desire" -- gorgeous.

    Something I want, no, something I need
    more than the leaves on all of the trees
    more than the sum of every mans greed
    more than anyone would ever believe
    `I like the first line -- the second? Not so much -- I feel like it could've been worded better. Third line? Just adoring. Last line? It felt too unoriginal and overused -- I've seen it used so often, it just smashed it for me.

    more than the moon and stars combined
    more than the sun could ever shine
    more than these simple words can define
    I want and need to be your Valentine.
    `Awkward ending -- not the words, just the flow and syllabication. It's a sweet message being passed, but I just feel like the stanza was a tad weak -- along with the rhymes. "more than the sun could ever shine" sounds like a clumsy choice for me. But that's just me .

    Four out of Five .
