like the raindrops on your cheek

the sparkle of your eyes i keep

tell me softly of your fears

i'll kiss away your salty tears.


not once bitten,
still twice shy,
fell to my death,
in love did i die

and went to heaven...

" Understanding is more valuable than diamonds. If you can understand me, Then you are a very rich person. "

TY!

This is really good. I liked the first stanza the most. The end is sad :',(

This poem is catchy. Not a style I have read often, unique and beautiful.  I like how you choose to express yourself! Smile

For some reason i thought you were going to go in a completely different direction with the poem, but I liked what you did with it anywayz.

I liked how you wrote it too.

im guessing that last line was for effect, thats why it stands alone. It worked.

well done

Heh, like this one alot.  A new style for me, not one I've seen before.  I like your signature too, though if wealth were truly measured by understanding, I'd regretfully be a rather poor soul.
