So tonight I see you in the real light
All beautiful and wrong
I thought that what we had was right
But boy, I was wrong.
You said that you loved me looking in my eyes
I said that I loved you back
Not knowing that we both lied.
Maybe you did love me, maybe I loved you.
But from the moment that we saw eachother
We should have known that we were doomed.

Remember that night, Matthew
walking down the street in the dark
to meet my heart's true blue desire
we met and we saw sparks
Intelligence and wit were the key to you and me
But you were to leave me too soon
And I was to be lonely.

You gave me a future, dreams to come true
I had to believe them
I needed to believe in you.
But dreams shatter and futures ignite
And the real you eventually shone through.
There you stood in the real light one night
All beautiful and wrong...but true.

Please comment...this is my first poem that I wrote and although alot of my emotions are locked the words i need an unbiased opinion...be brutally honest please!!!

very nicely done up!
i liked the format of the poem- its unique and worked well for the purpose of the poem. the content was a different story though. i was really unclear about what when on in the last stanza(naybe its just me) but the ending was nice...i liked the way you ended it, but it still, as i said, confused me about what you were feeling.
sometimes we're quick to allocate the wrong words to the worng feelings...although we would feel something, the words we use arent appropriate enough....i liked that message.
good work, i hope to see more of your work posted here soon!

WELCOMEEE

Welcome!!!

Glad to see you around. New members are fun to have. I encourage you to read around: reading other's poetry, especially some of the brilliant writers around here, can't help but improve our own.

You kept a good flow to your story... being able to have a start, finish, and ending are key to keeping a reader involved. And, as Acire said, your emotion was evident. Poetry isn't worth writing if it isn't true to you and your emotions. Well done!

Sincerely,
Titus

As I'm out there, walking, searching, for myself, for you.... won't you join me? Let's walk this journey together.
