Question: Is my poem good!? If not, what should I do to make it better!?
This is the poem:

The stroke of his fingers against my face feels so good inside!. I pretend to not like it because I know that he’ll do it again if I squirm!. Pathetic, I know!. But his cold fingers were so calming against my tired face!. As I look into his eyes, I see a beautiful man!. So full of life!. I have to look away quickly and joke about how he kept a straight face while doing that!. Oh how I longed for him to do that again! I long for his soft hands to caress my face!. I feel the butterflies being set free every time he does that!. I don’t know why this happens but it does!. I have wings to fly whenever I think about it!

Advice would help! Thanks! :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

oh i love poems!! hmm!.!. maybe u could try making your poem 'look' more like one!.!. u could divide up the lines and put them in stanzas!. that would also make a difference as to how u read the poem!.!. for example, u would pause after certain lines etc!. and it'd also sound more sensual and romantic :)

The stroke of his fingers
against my face
feels so good inside!.
I pretend to not like it
because I know
that he’ll do it again
if I squirm!.

Pathetic, I know!.
