Could this be something more

Could this be something more

A Poem by Breanna Riddle

I like you

And you like me

You said hello

And with that

You took the key

 

I wonder now

If this could work

Or if the time I’m using

Isn’t  really what it seems it’s worth

 

But I know one thing

You took your time

To say hello

And you still haven’t said goodbye

Once you give the key to your heart you are lost in a fantasy land, hoping it becomes reality. Well done

When you're young, it's easy to fall for a pretty smile and a little attention. Maybe it is worth it. You'll just have to wait and see.
I really like the first and last verse, but the middle verse might need a little revision, either with the breaks in the lines or the wording.
My issue is that the rest of the lines, it's very block-y 'I like you/and you like me/you said hello/and with that/you took the key', and while the second verse may start out that way 'i wonder now/if this could work', it suddenly speeds up and it looses the kind of rhythmic beat that you had in the previous lines. The problem with this is that it makes it a little hard to read because, for a moment, the reader gets lost in trying to fit the words into a pattern that isn't there anymore. However, the last line, even though it doesn't follow the pattern, is fine because its the end of poem and it kind of flows off like the tail end of a though.
Otherwise, very nice :)
