Trying to be Perfect

by Poetic Tragedy08   Aug 21, 2005


What can I say?
What can I do?
To be just perfect
To be the one for you?

To have you take me back
To give me back my wings
Just for one more day
To let our love again ring?

To bring me high again
Taller then the stars
To finally be free
And wash away my scars

Because last night
I re-fell in love with you
You remembered me
And I was who you once knew

Your arms around me tight
Where love was felt
Where memories returned
Where you could be smelled

Of these things
Burdening us two
Of these three simple words
"I love you"

    Well,there was too much use of the words "to", and "where"....which kind of made the poem lose it's value.

    To let our love again ring?

    I think I know what you were doing with this line,although I am not sure it works...I am thinking that you might need either the word "once" between love and again-accompanied with a comma...or some ellipsis dots.

    Taller then the stars

    instead of taller, I would use higher.

    you need to change this stanza...starting of with "because" really throws it off, and the flow is jumbled...

    Because last night
    I re-fell in love with you
    You remembered me
    And I was who you once knew

    And btw the end is nice... it's a nice and simple ending... but sum normal sentances need to be a "lil tiny" but the same... i think you can even make a song out of it if you had a Chorus

    OMG nice poem... but nobodies perfect... ok skip this bla bla bla

    Now sum useful feedback

    It was writen from the heart but as Lisa said you should try and make sentences about the same lenght... it gives it more rythem and makes it easier to read ;)

    (i hope you think this is "good" feedback) :P
