Comments : I'll See Your Heart And Raise You Mine

    Very unique piece of work here. I liked how you did the format of using a card game as a catalyst to love.

    One thing, and I hope I'm not being too harsh but this part:

    Be prepared to go all in
    I'll see your heart and raise you mine
    (The deciding move... do you accept?)
    I'll see your heart and raise you mine

    I think would sound better if done like this:

    Be prepared to go all in
    (The deciding move... do you accept?)
    I'll see your heart and raise you mine

    Just my opinion. I think the line 'I'll see your heart and raise you mine' is such a powerful and emothional line it stands on its own without having to be repeated. But like I said, It is only my opinion.

    Otherwise good job.

    Always,
    Jeannie

    It's so sweet and affective
    The emotions are inside of your poem getting in reader's heart
    And i liked that quote

    In this game of love, it's every man for himself
    You have to play your cards right

    So true
    Good job

    I loved this Gem. It was different and unique. I like poetry that is unique, but not so far off the wall that you dont know what the message is. Way to go!!

    I really loved the title of this, and when I read it that love just grew lol. It was very creative and I liked the brackets between which helped give a little more explanation and everything. Goes right along with the saying love is a gamble haha, I loved it. Keep it up. ^_^
