This You Should Know

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



This You Should Know

There might have been things I missed. It doesn't mean I am unkind, and it doesn't mean I am blind. You think I don't mean a single word I say. But it's all I have to take you away. I bought you all the things you wanted. But I am here to remind you that I will stay. Even if you should leave me, I will never let you go away. either way. You're the only one I can ever love anyway. So if you should stray, It won't mean a thing. You already won me over, so I move a little slower. Furthermore, I am here to remind you. Till the day I die. I'm still going to love you for a long, long time.

    Wow, what a heartfelt and emotional poem! The passion and dedication in your words really shine through. Your use of repetition adds depth and emphasizes the strength of your love for the recipient.

    One improvement suggestion would be to work on the flow and rhythm of the poem. Some lines feel a bit disjointed and could benefit from smoother transitions. This will help in maintaining the reader's engagement and make the poem even more impactful.

    Additionally, consider expanding upon the emotions and specific experiences that have shaped your love for this person. This will give the poem a more personal touch and allow readers to connect with your feelings on a deeper level.

    Overall, your poem is a touching expression of unwavering love and commitment. With a little fine-tuning, it has the potential to become an even more powerful piece that truly captivates the reader. Keep up the great work!
