    This poem had a great conclusion that really did wrap it all up. I only have a couple of problems with this poem. The first stanza is longer than the rest of the stanza, which is more of a formatting thing than anything else. Another thing that sort of got me was that the first two lines are the only ones with internal rhyming (unless I missed other ones). I felt like that left the beginning a bit heavy and the middle comparatively weak.

    Wow. Your words really do hit me hard.

    I would nitpick but I just enjoy reading your poetry so much that I won't degrade it in my mind. It's hard to find a poet on this site I can respect and find a challenge from. ;) But I love the images you give me and the way you write your thoughts.

    This poem really struck me as meaning a lot (to me). I know it says friendship poem but to me it's exactly how I'd describe my relationship with my "significant other"...Because, I suppose, he is my best friend first and everything else second...

    Anyway, I really loved this poem.

    This poem is one that should be read aloud. I was sitting here and reading it; nice meter, nice flow, I loved your internal rhyming, the first two lines were flawless.
    The only thing that turned me off this poem was your spelling! "u" instead of "you" "i" instead of "I" PLEASE revisit this and fix those things up. It might seem petty... but damn, it'd be worth it!
    Still, nice job.

    Okay this was an amazing poem as well i enjoy your work a great deal but before i go off on how wonderful you are i think it really takes from your poem when you spell words such as "you"..."u" or "in...."n" i know it is a small thing and you might not think it matters but this poem is so descriptive and so elegant and typing two extra letters isn't that hard.....

    um it was rough in some areas i loved the first eight lines they were beautiful!!!! then you started to lag a little and things didnt match up quite as well

    (i dont know if you grouped the first two stanzas on purpose or if it is supposed to be two but if it is supposed to be two)

    the 3rd stanza you broke your rhyme scheme and honestly with the ideas that you have and the way you want to word things i dont think a rhyme scheme was completly the best choice for this poem because you have amazing ideas like your are a genius but it was somewhat choppy and what not

    anyhow good job, im going to give it a 5/5 because it wasnt just good it was excellent even with the flow breaks i still loved it
