Only You and Me...

by The Dead Poet   Aug 10, 2012


A bright sunshine,
Filtered from top of pine,
No one to bear it,
But only you and me...

The first rain of season,
The pure and shiny drops,
No one to taste it,
But only you and me...

A cool beach with cunning waters,
The running and splashing those laughter,
No one to make sand castle,
But only you and me...

A morning walk in dark fogs,
The chill of hew and warm of grass,
No one to hold hands,
But only you and me...

The reddish sunset,
With those white sandy shores,
No one to love more and more,
But only you and me...

A clear night and those stars,
Counting them and making wars,
No one to shout at,
But only you and me...

A relaxing moonlight,
Colors of silvers and white,
No one to light candles,
But only you and me...

You standing in crowd,
Feeling lost and yelling loud,
No one to guide and love you,
But only me and me....

Love You Always,
"The Dead Poet"

  • I like it. But a few suggestions:

    Third stanza; second line
    I think this line needs re-working.
    It doesn't really make sense; it's either missing a word or needs one of the words changed - I'm thinking 'those'
    Possibly change it to 'and their'

    Third stanza; third line
    I think there needs to be an 's' on the end of 'sand castles'

    Fourth stanza; second line
    This could just be me being silly but is 'hew' meant to be 'dew' - a typo perhaps. I only haven't heard of the word 'hew' except written like 'hue' as in tone/colour. But I could definitely be mistaken...

    Eighth stanza; first line
    'in crowd' should become 'in a crowd' or 'in the crowd' - it doesn't sound right otherwise

    Eighth stanza; fourth line
    This may be intentional, but in case it's not is it meant to read 'you and me' like the rest of the stanzas? or have you intentional written 'me and me'?
    If it is intentional, I think you should just opt to write 'but only me...'

    Now for the praise;
    I really do like it.

    I loved the repetition of the line:
    'but only you and me...'
    Repitition of one line or word can sometimes become cluttered, but it is not the case here. You have managed to use it advantageously.

    I also like the use of imagery.
    It was clear throughout the entire piece and really added to its impact and expression.

    The final sign off:
    'Love You Always,
    "The Dead Poet" '
    I really thought that was a nice touch, because I truly thought this was a love poem intended to be given to someone you care about.

    Also, you have managed to create the pace of the poem perfectly. It's a rather relaxing, enjoyable piece.

    One more thing - the snippets of rhyme throughout the piece. Your rhyme pattern was forever changing which made it so unique. I, personally, really enjoyed its crazy scheme.

    Excellent work! 5/5

    Might I add, Welcome to the site!
    Hope you enjoy it as much as its current members. (:
