There are some beautiful sentiments here. Your intermingling of your love affair with water imagery gives the poem more depth as there's an extra layer of meaning. Your constant questioning suggests you are desperate for assurances that she'll be there for you. Very nicely done.

This poem feels heartfelt and sweet, but not really original. Many of the lines seem like they are cliches or idioms, overused in poetry, and sort of meaningless. The accompanying photo is beautiful!

    This is not Maria writing, but maybe before you are so rude to her, you should know that she is a smart young girl. Perhaps you should take what she says as constructive instead of being so offended.

    her review was not constructive but offended, she needs to write before she reviews have a nice day

    How do you know Maria doesn't write? Perhaps you shouldn't assume.

    I am going to report you if you are not more polite to Maria. If you can''t handle constructive criticism without being retaliatory because you have thin skin, don't post your stuff for review.

Hi deepwater,

I take back my promise of not reviewing any of yours again. I meant to do it earlier with a piece of yours I really liked, somehow got away from me.

But I truly love this poem. It speaks to my heart for those are exactly some things I'd like to say but never could find the words.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem with us.

smiles,

deb

There are no guarantees in life--and yet we still ask!! I hope that you make the right choices and find and are able to hold on to that elusive thing called happiness--well portrayed here!

Are you: my love, my life, my soul mate? do I dare to dream,

Can we stand hand in hand at peace with the understanding of time in this moonlight?

It was so clear to see how one lover bemoans the lost of another. (when I fall will you extend your inner spirit to catch my worthlessness) (Only to replenish yourself with the winds of change). In the absence of love the heart speaks, in reflective voice. The poetry format was pleasing to the eyes in non rhyme. An excellent mesh Artwork with words. I would recommend to my friends, Writing From the Heart. No negative comments. Excellent.

I felt as though I could be the reflection that you were writing about, it connected that well. Wow, the depth of the subject is reflected in the metaphor of the water. I truly enjoyed reading. My favorite stanza was the last one, and the last line was my favorite.

Hi

I noted at the top "writings from the heart", and this was true to that indeed,

the writing reflecting the feelings inside.

The ending was thought provoking and powerful.

Deepwater, a very good visual and metaphoric poem about the unknowns where love is concerned. Love your impressive language. Good picture. Good job.
