How bright the flame

Right from the start I gave you my heart, ooh. ooh, nobody told you (nobody told you).... "Don't go breaking my heart"

"all of me" All of me, why not take all of me.... "All of me"

Figured I'd just identify a couple of the songs you were "quoting", as it seems everybody else has pounded on you quite well. Smile Some advice. Stay away from love poems and religious poetry. It is extremely difficult not to repeat what has already been done. Writing love poetry when your in love is the worst. You get all puffed up with being in love, and out pops cliches and and pop songs. When you get to the point where you're "quoting" lyrics of bad pop songs, you're already way passed the point of where you should have stopped.

Here is a small list of words never to use in a love poem: love, heart, me, you, us, together, I, soul, mate, sailing, hideaway, beating, tearing, breaking, apart, time, follow, care, hurt, forever, song, light, life, why, or anything that resembles a lyric by the Carpenters.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
