For Me by April Broeckx

This feeling is a blessing,

This feeling is a curse.

With everyday it's nurtured,

The more and more it burns.

 

It is a wondrous thing,

This feeling I can't see.

It's like the clouds have parted,

And the sun is shining down on me.

 

My insides are consumed,

With this warm and joyous thing.

Forever and forever,

Is what I wish you would sing.

 

-April Broeckx

It was a fun little read, but I think with a little codeification of the rhyme and meter it could be even stronger. The opening stanza sets a good meter of 7 to 6, and you only broke from it twice. I think if you mend that it'll be a little smoother. Beyond that, it's a great quick little poem that says a lot and captures the mood very well. Excellent job.
