Poem Commentary

I don't like how my mother keeps pointing out your flaws, Erick. I love you and your flaws come with you. I must learn to block her out and keep my head empty of doubts.

not another valentine poem.

My valentine,
I like the sound.

I like the way it happened.

Though I'm filled with doubt, I'll carry my side of us.
That's the way it should be...
My heart is heavy.

Drenched in the feeling of all my extremities and stress.
Heart pounding.

And then, relief.

Codependence is not all bad.
Especially, when that person can handle your levels.
My levels so high.

Verdicts and vertigo.
I'm not sure what to do,
my valentine.

Thanks! :D I love your feedback. ♥

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
