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

    i love human rose, I'm gonna send it to the person i like, it's awesome, the other poem is also nice, but it's not very nice, but the first one rocks, keep on writing such poems!!

  • 1 decade ago

    those are good. they're cute. i like the first one better. it gives more thoughts of love. the second one sounds more of lust. you should do touch-ups to both and see if you can get them published. they're quite good.

    These are really good.........I think you should continue writing more and more.

    You could also increase the intensity of the emotions.......
