Roses are red



Violets are blue



As much as I resist



I still want you



Hugs and kisses



Love and lost



I wanted it so badly



At any cost



I know I don't need it



I know I can live



But with everything around me



It's hard to believe



I feel like i'm free



But then it comes back



When my smile fades



I my heart into black



When you were there



Just lifted me up



And after a day



I began to drop



But I will fight



Not for you



But because roses are red



And violets are blue

Great way to start and to end a poem! It started off with the old and classic poem.."Roses are red.." and I expected this to be like those kinds of poems, old, plain, and just too cliche. But the whole middle part was soo different and original that it just gave more power to the poem. Love the way you ended it too, and the structure of the piece was also great.

Keep it up!
