I Gave You My Heart

by Daylight Lucidity   Jul 2, 2013


A friendship I cherish more and more
With each passing day,
Tickles the bottom of my lonely half of a heart
As I yearn to find the most meaningful words to say.

Little did you know, splendor of my world,
I cared so deeply about you from the start,
Tucking away those feelings was the hardest thing I have
Ever encountered, just to keep you close.

As time flew by, I found myself falling
For a fragile angel who I adore,
Her smile so radiant, as if the sun,
Eyes twinkling, as if the stars,
Beauty, internal and external, greater than the northern lights.

My lips could not be sealed for any longer,
The words on the tip of my tongue,
I told you my feelings, my longing to be with you.

That day, darling, I gave you my heart.

    I didnt see any flaws so heres my stanza comment :).

    First- I love how you start out this poem because you are talking about friendship anf finding the write words to say to the one we love. That is one of the most difficult things to do. We always ask ourselves will they love us back? Should I take a chance or not. Great set up and stanza.

    Second- again its hard to keep feelings at bay when you feel like they dont love you back. I love how you decribe pushing the feelings away even though you loved them from the start. Great wording here.

    Third- wow this has such power and vivid imagery its unbelievable. It gets harder in time when you love someone but feelings will arise. I love how you describe and angel the sun is the halo and her eyes are the star beautiful work.

    Ending-I love the story behind this because you finally let go of your feelings inside and you used the title perfectly. I love how you keep the reader guessing not know how the other person feels. Great write other all. It connects so well together. 5
