April, -- melancholy bliss,
April, -- joyful dejection,
Dreams of passionate affection,--
April’s nothing but a tease.

Lost and happy that I’m lost,
In the labyrinths of sadness,
You are driving me to madness,
April, -- my eternal host.

April, -- nothing seems enough...
April, -- touching declarations
Uncontrollable sensations,--
I am drowning in her love.

April, -- wandering in gloom.
April, -- windows always opened
And insomnia, so often,
Still evokes her sweet perfume.

I like all the work i've read from you but i thought this was far from your best work.  i dunno, i guess it seemed a bit scattered to me.  anyway, nice job and keep posting.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

This poem is fantastic!  I love the repetition.  Great work.
Keep writing.

Very very different style from what I'm used to seeing. Very nice though. Not your best but I completely appreciated the style and the last line rocked.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Such a wonderful description of the tormenting sensations that love can bring. I enjoyed this one. Thanks for sharing.

Hey,

       I agree this is not what I am used to seeing from you and in my view not your best work. I however did enjoy reading the poem and that this is still a good poem. Until your next masterpeice

I did think this one was good... very nice job with the meter and everything, it flowed well.
However I'd have to say that the last paragraph was disappointing, in that it defied the scheme of rhyme that I had grown so attached to.  One thing I have noticed about your work is that you sometimes settle for a rhyme that isn't quite a rhyme, if I had to critique something about you in general it would be this.  
I hope to read more of yours, Master.  You do have quite a bit of talent.

I respectfully disagree from the rest of our peers   I think often times master sacrifices the "perfect" rhyme for the PERFECT word...
his imagry is amazing, nobody ive seen on passions captures the relationship between love and loss like master can

write on bro
