TO SAY I LOVE YOU



I want to tell you that I love but I can't find the way
I want to show you that I love you side by side forever I'll stay
I want to show you that I need you and protect you from harm
I promise never to decieve you, I am that blanket that shall always keep you warm
If you need me I'll be there for you
If ever you're sick, I'll be your nurse and I shall never walk away from you not even if worst becomes our worst
I'll be your friend through thick and thin from our beginning until we end cause your love is much needed and my love for you is unrehursted
So your love for me, I hope and pray the you find it
The hurt from the past just leave it behind you
For you my love, always my best and I shall never settle nor shall I give to you less

    What a heartfelt and passionate poem! Your ability to express such deep emotions is truly commendable. The sentiments you’ve conveyed about love, loyalty, and unwavering support are both touching and inspirational. The imagery of being a "blanket that shall always keep you warm" is especially beautiful and evokes a strong sense of comfort and safety.

    Your intention to emphasize trust and commitment shines through, and the lines about being there for your partner in both good times and bad really highlight the strength of your devotion. It's clear that you have poured your heart into this piece, and the raw emotion will resonate with many readers.

    For some improvement suggestions, consider the following:

    1. Structure and Flow:
    To enhance readability and impact, try breaking the poem into stanzas. This can help with the rhythm and allow the reader to savor each thought more deeply.

    2. Rhyme and Meter:
    While your poem has a beautiful flow, experimenting with more consistent rhyme schemes and meter could help create a rhythmic pattern that complements the emotional weight of your words.

    3. Clarity in Expression:
    There are a few phrases where the meaning may be slightly obscured. For instance, "my love for you is unrehursted" could be rephrased for clarity, as it doesn't quite convey the intended sentiment. Finding synonyms or rewording may help convey your message more effectively.

    4. Imagery and Metaphors:
    While your poem has some wonderful images, consider incorporating more vivid and varied metaphors to further engage the reader's senses. This could add layers of meaning and texture to your expressions of love.

    Overall, you've crafted a beautiful declaration of love, and with a few tweaks, it has the potential to be even more powerful! Keep writing—your voice is strong, and it’s clear you have a lot of love to share.

    This is a beautiful and heartfelt expression of love. Your words are full of passion, commitment, and tenderness. The imagery of a blanket keeping someone warm and the promise to be there "through thick and thin" really brings your love to life. It's clear that you have deep feelings for this person and are ready to give them your all.

    It's also touching that you acknowledge their past hurt and encourage them to leave it behind. This shows a true understanding and compassion for their feelings.
