Working on a poem

I already started a love poem and I would like you folks to tell me if it is a good start:

Each day I always see you're wonderful face
It will be an image that I could never erase
Each night you're appearing in a dream
It will be a memory that will always make me deem

That's it for now smile

Next paragraph:

When I look deep into your eyes
I know that you're thinking about something nice
When tears are falling down your eyes
I know that the cause of this was filled with lies

Please add some replies about the poem and some correction if possible especially for the last sentence "I know that the cause of this was filled with lies" because I am not sure. sad

Thank you smile

1st Stanza

1. The manner in which you used the word "deem" is incorrect.
2. Try not rhyming on every line.

2nd Stanza

1. You rhymed "eyes" with "eyes"...that doesn't cut it.
2. You rhymed "nice" with "lies" and they don't actually rhyme.
3. The structure of the 2nd stanza is much different than your 1st stanza.

First line- "You're" should be "your"
"Deem" is not used correctly, as Ken said.

Yeah the whole AABB rhyming scheme doesn't seem to be working well for this one hun. Maybe try something else like ABAB or just free style smile

Not sure what you're trying to accomplish with this stanza... It doesn't seem to fit with the other one... were you trying to do ABAA rhyming?

But what's wrong about a rhyming poem?

ok then how about that

Each day, I always see your wonderful face
It will be an image that I could never erase
Each night, you're appearing in my dreams
Like an angel, you're surrounded with beams

Some days, I look deep into your eyes
I know that you're thinking about something really nice
Other days, tears are falling down your eyes
I know that the cause of this was filled with lies

tip: could someone help me with that second sentence in the 2nd stanza?
I would appreciate it.

Thank you

Oh, there's nothing wrong with that hun. It's just that the first and second stanza don't have the same rhyming scheme, so it doesn't flow as smoothly as it could smile

The second stanza could be something like:

Some days, when I look into your eyes,
I see the absence of your cold disguise.
Other days, tears are falling from your eyes;
I know that the cause of this was filled with lies

Third stanza:

- Maybe some day, you will breeak my heart
- Then all my dreams will fall apart
- I will certainly be in state of pain
- The memories of that day will always make me insane

Thank you
if i may, i dont want to out-do anyone but i thought i would fiddle with this and hopefully intertain while rendering your poem and changing to something that you may like....here goes

each day i see your form so true
may i forever be alone with you
at night your presence is not here
but in my dreams you are so clear

i fall headlong in your eyes mild stare
and find no sorrows anywhere
yet times tears fall along your face
makes me long to hold you, a warm embrace

to leave you now, would mean my end
and make me wonder sometime when
of what could be and of what should
and times of bad that turn out good



i know i changed the rhyme scheme and added the extra line, but i do hope it intertained you as well as helped out some..

My love Poem

Each day, I always see your wonderful face
It will be an image that I could never erase
Each night, you're appearing in my dreams
Like an angel, you're surrounded with beams

Some days, I look deeply into your eyes
I see the absence of your cold disguise
Other days, tears are falling from your eyes
I know that the cause of this was filled with lies

Maybe some day you will break my heart
Then all my dreams will fall apart
I will certainly be in the state of pain
The memories of that day will always make me insane

But I believe this will never be true
I hope that I will always be with you
This is the moment of truth and love
Let us both admire the stars above


Thank you for all of those helped me out.
(tip: I need a suggestion for a title)

Whisper me if you see any correction to be made please, I would appreciate it.

Really nice.

A good title would be. "A Moment of Love"
