Poems I wrote awhile back - Feedback?

I know they're not masterpieces, but I wrote them when I was in 6th grade, so take that into consideration. I'm just kind of curious as to what you guys think.

"Human Rose"

You can't understand
How I feel inside.
How my heart burns for you,
All through the night.

I dream that you are by my side.
I can feel you, touch you.
But then you become
just an apparition.

If I could see you one last time,
I could glow again.
Know everything was all right,
Even if only for a moment.

But the heartache of losing you again
would be too great.
So I'll have to learn
to live without you.

"What I Want"

Do you know how I feel,
and how I think?
Can you look inside my eyes,
and tell me what is true?

Can you forget about time,
and spend it with me?
This is what,
I really want.

I don't want candy,
and I don't want flowers.
All I want is you
and your hours.

Can you do this?
I know you can.
This is what I want
out of my man.

I would like to see what you have written lately. These are fair to good for an adult. Sure there are some weaknesses, but nothing major. I'm impressed.

for a sixth grader that was pretty good, but the opening with question to a new section is sort of a cliché. but the poem it's self was eye opening and i think you have a gift, as you continue to write you will find your style and make it your own masterpiece....good job
