How Do I Know?

How Do I Know?

A Poem by Jeff Miller
"

I feel this poem is weak, not good...

"

How do I know what to do?

I hate having to wonder what's true

My feelings are never constant

I don't know if it's really you I want

Tired of the drama and fights

It makes me wanna spread my wings and take flight

I feel like husband and wife one minute

Then the next I feel like strangers who just met

How can you tell me I am your everything?

When it's only for a millisecond that your cling feels right

I wish I had a girl that was my cinstant

Instead of being left with feelings of hunt

Okay....you are asking for reviews...so, please allow me to offer some advice.
The ideas are good, but you have some flow and rhyme that might be improved...i.e.

First six lines are good and rhyme scheme is consistent, but then you seem to break into free verse. Is
this intentional?

If so, then drop it down a bit from the first six lines to set it apart.
Right rhymes with flight but it is too far removed.
and perhaps a typo in the word, "constint"..do you mean constant?
The last line could be stronger - think a bit about it.

The idea is GOOD, but work with it a bit. It has potential!!

This piece has power! If you reread it a few times, and read in between the lines you can see true power and connection! This is a poem you need to completely analyze to judge fairly, because it has more than just face value! Keep writing!
