I've redone this poem in another way and i would like some opinions on which one is better, (look for hidden phrase in the second version)

touched you once
loved you twice
watched you more
cold as ice

seen you there
your not here
show no emotion
heart stand still

see your eyes
they grow dim
wish you wouldn't
stand by him

SECOND EDITION

touched you once
loved you twice
watched you more
cold as ice

seen you there
your not here
show no emotion
heart stand still

bright eye shines
heart grows dim
sit alone tonight
your with him

I really liked it. In only three verses you have managed to capture the most obvious feelings. Very kewl.

hoppy: for a normal poem i wouldn't like the dr. seuss approach all that much, but considering the title and the ideas you express, i think it really works here... good job  

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
