But yet we don't quite understand Self-doubt dominates emotion As does our love and devotion I have heard trust has to be earned Time must pass for it to be learned But recognition began at the start We must heed commands of the heartWww@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: And who are you flirting with and wondering about!? Self-doubt, cast it out, rid yourself of that anchor and go for the gusto! lol Nice, reflective piece!. Borderline cliche on S2L1 but you offset it with 'I have heard!.'Www@QuestionHome@Com i thought it was well written and rhymed but agree with prior poster who said it seemed short !.!.!.i felt the poem was cropped!.!.!.!.lured the reader in then stopped short !. perhaps the addition of a verse or two [not all poems have to be ten pages long i understand] and lengthen the lines as some didnt fit with a poetic flow for example !.!.!.great lines "self doubt dominates emotion as does our love and devotion" just felt it was less flowing than the two lines that preceeded them perhaps simple additions may make the flow more natural !.!.!. like "self doubt dominates OUR emotion[s] as does our OWN love and devotion " adding little words and an s may make more of a difference than thought!. this technique can be followed on the second paragraph aswell,as it seemed cropped again [not saying disliked it just trying to help flow be more natural ] consider : "i have heard that trust MUST be earned AND THAT time must pass for US TO LEARN but recognition HAS TO BEGIN at the start AND we must heed THE commands of the heart" [adjusting a word here or there may make the natural flow more believeable !.!.!.and helps readers focus whilst reading " goodluck and hope i helped michelle Www@QuestionHome@Com i like it!.!.!. sounds unfinished though, good poem, i'd urge yu to work on it a bit and take it somewhere!.!.!. im sure it'll be a good place where it ends!Www@QuestionHome@Com Good verse!
