My homeland is not of the world

My Love For You
by,
Matt
Dedicated to
My only love, Cassie

Brighter than
the stars above,
does my heart shine
for you, my love.
More constant than
the fires below us,
does my heart burn
with love unconfessed.
More memorable than
ever cheer,
are your words
which I hear.
Lighter than
air, wind, and tears,
am I while
I'm near you, dear.
Cause purer than
all things true,
is my love
for you.

*sniffs* Aww...that's such a sweet poem! I like your comparisons too. One suggestion, if you don't mind:

"Hotter than
the fires below us,
does my heart burn
with love unconfessed."


You might want to consider using another word than "hotter". It's too general for something such as fire. Maybe "More passionate" or something along those lines. I suppose you could use "fiery", but you'd be repeating the same word twice too soon...

That's about it. Good job on the rest of the poem. Cassie's one lucky girl. ^_^;

I absolutely hate love poems. But I actually kind of like this one, which believe me is quite a step. It sounded very sincere and it was also rather creative.

I really like the way you've written this poem. It comes straight from your heart, so thats what makes it really special.
Love is such a strong force, and we all feel it in some form. Your girl will love this poem.
