    Noura, Nice write,
    just a couple of things...

    Change the first part of the first stanza to:

    You are a flower
    growing in me
    a narcissus in your colour,
    a lily in your easy shape,
    ever thrilling.

    ^^
    The repetition of shape broke the flow.
    I'd also suggest that you change the layout slightly, to give more depth.

    Other than this, I like this piece, your comparisons and wording simple but beautiful.

    You are the morning yawn
    hidden in my pillow
    darling, and I so love
    to awake with you.

    That is a fabulous write. The way it is constructed is greatly done. Bravo. The love and emotions pouring our from each line holds the readers attentions and allows the reader to feel you feelings from start to end.

    I liked the repetition, thought it gave the poem an extra humph or what you will.. No complaints here, nicely done.

    5/5

    I agree with Tara concerning the repetition of 'shape'.

    Other than that, perfect.. as always.

    I loovvvvvvvvve the flower growing in you line. To me it's a natural and beautiful way of saying that they are part of you. They are part of who you are. Your roots are entwined with theirs. Beautiful.

    I love the idea of beige pieces of furniture. I love the idea of white and beige. I find that it makes a room look quite open and fresh and stunning. I believe that is how you are trying to describe your relationship with this person.

    The phone kiss me line actually made me smile. I can imagine the two of you whispering on the phone (or at least he will be). I love those kisses, the next best thing when they're not by your side. Sweetest thing! I love the idea of urgent accent you speak. I think it's the tone when talking with each other and you want to see each other so badly!!!

    I think this is a sweet, slightly sensual poem. Loved it!!!

    I enjoyed this poem very much. I am new to writing so take my understanding with a grain of salt perhaps, but I was a little confused. The first half of the poem seems like the love of a mother and an unborn child. (That is just the impression I got.)
    "You are a flower
    growing in me
    a Narcissus in your color
    a lily in your easy shape"

    Perhaps I took the lines too literally instead of symbolically, however the break in the middle definately pointed to romantic love.
    "I love how you
    phone kiss me
    in a whispering tone"

    It almost seemed like two poems, but I loved the feelings it provoked and it made me smile.

    4/5 :)
