Hi Lulube,
'if I ever' is all you deserve, as does everyone whose life is intertwined with someone else's heart.

There is a real haunting reassurance in your questions... as I hoped the answers would always come back to you in a beautiful and positive way... the partner that stood by you in the good as well as the vulnerable times.

The sentiment woven through your wonderful poem really touched my tender side... I see this as the true mission for relationships as a rule... the one that is and will always be there for you, no matter what... you deserve nothing less than that!

A truly beautiful poem my friend.

With our thoughts we create,
swaddled love,
James vx's

This was beautiful and so powerful that it brought tears to my eyes. Who doesn't have, or hasn't had, a person in their life that they are so drawn to that these are the very feelings, the very yearnings, you feel for that person? If they've never experienced this kind of love, my only wish is that they will -- regardless of the good and bad that may come with it. It reminds me of a phrase I've used frequently with a person who fits that description for me: "don't let me go," I always tell him.. Not giving this a 5 and a "somo" -- giving it a "6"! Lovely.

Good use of repetition and parallel construction with the different "If I ever" scenarios
good alliteration in phrases like words whispered and tender touching
good use of enjambment
effective use of questions
soulful and moving expression of emotion throughout

Good job, Lulube, with your free verse poem. Good use of enjambment as one thought trickles right into another with the question "If I ever...". The speaker clearly wanting reassurance from her loved one that even though things aren't always perfect that he will still be the one who's there. Artwork compliments the mood of the poem.

Very well written, for me, I felt a kind of hidden guilt, I know my interpretation may be way off.. but I see a love that may want to wander, or feels it is not getting enough love in return and may want to test the waters a bit.. at any rate, I enjoyed, and I'm glad I stopped to read..

The artwork you choose to go with your poem
it a perfect match for the sky is pale grey blue just like the words in every line. This is a very heart breaking poem to read.
Thank you for sharing.

I love this, and I'm only sorry that it's not Sunday, so I can bestow the rating it actually deserves. In every relationship there comes a time when walking away is really a plea to be stopped and turned around by someone you love. Your words say all that and more.
