True, love stinks,
But love is what links.
I don't know what to do.
I'm lost with out you.
But my true love, we haven't yet met,
I know I will love you, but the path must be set.
I have been abandoned so many times before, in so many ways,
But you will be there to brighten my days.
When I finally meet thee, I'll protect thine life with mine own life.
Through sheer force of will I will get thee through any strife,
So hand me my blade, my belt and my cloak, colored creme,
And I will go on my adventure and perhaps end this longing dream.
Only thee could love my modest solemn mood the most,
But for now I am traveling alone against lonliness and despair, from coast to coast...

Welcome to passions, I know you don't want to be critiqued but one quick thing......you started an elizabethan style at the middle and ended with it.......i think you should have the whole poem with that one style. I see some words that could be changed in that kind of form that you didn't use until the middle.
Nicely done though. Post more!

Thanks for your support. I just really do not like Valentine's Day this year and am a bit resentful towards it. I was actually asked to put something like this on a Valentine contest, I was reluctant, but the idea just hit me, couldn't believe I actually went and submitted it at school and entered the contest! I have a question, I don't mind the critique, I just haven't changed my settings yet on my profile ^_^ Can someone explain the elizabethan style that I slipped into? I know I could improve it, and I don't do much writing for enjoyment.

Very nice job! I like how you drew the parallel between a knight in a war and a man searching for love.
What a nice thing to read on Valentine's day.
Great job, and welcome to Passions.
