Poetry / Reminisce (Analysis)

As I sit and watch you sleep—
Your hazel eyes, your soft skin—
I often wonder how it could have been
Had you said no.
You are my best friend,
My most treasured companion,
My everlasting light—
The one who loves me for who I am.
You are my inspiration,
My aspiration—
And I love you.

This poem is good for the same reason it’s not, because everyone can realate to it. That’s what catches people, relatability, and you’ve got that. But, the trick of poetry is saying it in that ‘perfect’ way that Joe Shmoe couldn’t. Good emotion, good climbing down to the simple ender “ilove you” but you can tell it was an event that lead you to the pen, not some much that the pen is always in your hand.Keep writing, write hundreds, it’s a long road we face.

Well, its just wonderful you’ve been published.  Albeit, it really ruined my “ouevre”.  It just sets up like boasting. Sorry please don’t hate.  I just can’t read the thing the same way.   A suggestion?  I know you’re self-promoting, but wouldn’t this be more appropriate for your bio on urbis?  After all, if I’m hiring you I would track you down don’t you forget it! Just one girl’s opinion. thank you.
Also: no more than three or four rating criteria—any more is just—a waste.  It’s LONGER THAN YOUR POEM.

I hate to say it but I think your poem is a bit trite.  It starts well, skin and eyes, quite romantic, but adoration can be a bit of fluff.

I didn’t find any grammar, punctuation, or spelling errors.

It reads very easily and well.  Thanks for sharing.

Great work, very touching.  
Very many people could read it and feel it was written about them.
Lose the dashes, and perhaps write a prologue or epilogue, just a sentence or two that can connect a reader that is further interested in the background behind what inspired the piece.

This poem reminds me of a love affair of two freinds.
It has a nice flow.
I’d like to see more description, more details.
Keep the readers reading.
I can see that you are very proud of being published and my congrats to you.
Keep on producing more. Bravo!
