Question: "I Love You" - a poem revised!.!?
Here I am, sipping lemonade,
There you are, watching the parade,
people in costumes throw confetti
later I'm gonna have spaghetti!.

You love the blue of the sky,
hurts so much to say good bye,
please won't you keep moving forward,
but still don't be too straightforward

These are my feelings for you,
don't pull away; maybe do,
'cause today there's me and there's you,
I don't want to see this day through

It's like I'm out of control,
the preacher's face has a mole,
I don't know who Jesus is,
but he had a knack for show biz

I'm just gonna tell you the truth
Saw your pics from photobooth
that you put on your Facebook
I just had to go have a look

I know it might sound lame
Although they were all the same
You know I looked at each one
'Cause I think you might be the one

If you love me don't tell me,
Prefer your magical spell, me
and I want this to lead to something
if you get me, I like that lump thing!.

I see you across the floor,
you are the one I adore,
This love has only begun
'cause I think you may be the one

i think its better but idk what do you think!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I'm sorry but its just to messy and cliched:( I!. I think the only thing that could/should be changed is the forced rhyming!. you don;t HAVE to rhyme a poem line by line like you have here, and its too obvious that you have done it on purpose!. I mean the reference to what she wil have for dinner later has nothing to do with her thinking she loves this person who i presume is a friend!.And refering to jesus and the preachers mole!.!.!.stop thinking rhyming makes profound and meaningful poetry!!!Just go with your heart

Make the rhyming less frequent and more simple to get the meaning of the poem across, because the story of the poem is so beautiful and innocent and something we can relate to(I especially loved the idea of looking at all of his photos on facebook just so you could see him,I've certainly done that) , its such a shame to let it be hidden among all those words "confetti!.!.!.spaghetti!.!.!.!.floor !.!.!.adore!.!.!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

Facebook should never be in a love poem, you make rampant use of cliches and that stanza about Jesus does not go with that poem!. Magic, across the floor, blue sky, out of control, you have to do better!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
