When I Saw You...

When I saw you,
I couldn't stop thinking about us becoming a pair.
When I saw you,
I felt a special need to care.

When I saw you,
It's like nobody else is around.
When I saw you,
My heart it began to pound.

When I saw you,
I got lost in a trance.
When I saw you,
I said why can't you just give me a chance.

When I saw you,
I knew I wouldn't let harm come your way.
When I saw you,
You seemed to take my breath away.

When I saw you,
At that last dance.
When I saw you,
I came to realize that it was with you I want true romance.

I am not a rhyming poet so others that are may come in and contradict me, but it would be better if the line lengths were slightly more uniform.  And the rhymes were almost painfully forced.

Eh...I don't know if I liked the repeating of When I Saw You...in my opion ( sp ) it kinda took away from the poem having it repeated every other line. Maybe like every three or four lines would work but um....I dunno. Maybe work on this and revise it a little and you can make the lines even out with the rhyming and all. Well anyways thanks for the read.

I agree that the rhyming seemed forced, but the message of the poem was great. I really enjoyed it and could relate to it. Good job!

If don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything.
