A very well-written poem about unanswered love. Sometimes we are hopelessly in love with someone who don't even notice our existence. It is hard to be in their presence and to hide our feelings.

Great poem this, the girl really adores this guy and what a pity he doesn't feel the same way. You really convey the intensity of her passion for him, and I can't help feeling so very sorry for her.
A worthy contest entry, good luck and well done.

Hey there, Poet: It's great to see this much love in one poem. I mean you have really expressed a deep, deep, hopelessly in love - kind of love:

I breath in the air where his words flow freely,
and my soul is filled with precious sweetness.
My very being glows from his accidental touch,
my feelings overflow because I love him so much.
My heart beats faster when he laughs,
I shout silently, joyfully when he is happy.
My heart longs to tell him of my love,

I was reading along and then I realized that this one so loved would never know of this love. How sad! I remember only one time when I felt this way. i was in the 9th grade and a had a horribly huge crush on this boy named, Robert. All day long I used to fantasize about him and my love for him but he never noticed me. If he passed me in the school hallway. I would be blushing so hard - simply because he walked passed me. Finally he started saying hello to but that was all - never anything else, just hello. Yeah, I know - sad, right.

This is what is so great about your poem. Most people can relate to it's every word. This situation must have happened to many at at least one point in their lives.

Great job! You should do well in this contest. Oh! and I love the picture. Priceless!

    It's funny that you should say that because I wrote this poem when I was 15, in the 9th grade and in love with a basketball player named Tim who didn't know I was alive. He was tall with Sandy colored hair and was nice to everyone. I was completely smitten and even though he was always friendly, that was all there was. I'm over it now of course...or an I? Still think about him to this day. Thanks for taking the time to read my poem.

This is so absolutely what unrequited love is like. If you could throw in some deeper language, some similes or metaphors or just get damn mad. You write so sweetly and when love isn't returned, we get angry a bit. It is well written and I like it though. You have a bit of potential hidden away and I think you need to shout it out! :)

    Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem, you are probably right, a little bit of anger might spice it up a bit, it's just not in my nature. Thanks for the feedback.

A sad story of a one sided love, a longing for something that cannot be changed, we can't make someone love us, a sentimental write, good luck with the contest, love Dolly x

I walk upon the ground he walks upon,
I breath the air he breathes, knowing I will never be a part of him.
Sharing only his friendship, his kindness and his shining smile.' I remember this feeling, in some ways I always will. A beautiful and sweet poem very good kind regards Meia xx

Well it certainly fits the contest catagory, "unrequited love". There is a bit of quite good rhyme in parts but I think it needs a bit of an edit to make it flow more smoothly.

This rating does not count towards story rating or author rank.
The highest and the lowest rating are not included in calculations.

    Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem. I'm more of a free verse writer when it comes to my work, I really don't follow a certain structure or form, but I'm happy with how it turns out. I appreciate the feedback.

Oh, unrequited love is so hard. You wrote your contest entry perfectly. I can just feel for the person in this. The first part was a sweet love poem until you realize the other doesn't return it.

Good luck in the contest.
