Lost without you

Maybe
someday you will come around
to thaw whats frozen
since you left
I sow tears
in the white land
to reap your smile
warm like sunshine
but icicles grew colder
each and every day...
I wrapped myself
with the freezing wind
to reach across
the blanket of snow
to find you in autumn
with a hint of cinnamon
between fiery leaves
or to look in summer
with glaring skies
dappled in gold
still no hint of you
I turned back then
with ragged steps
because always and forever
you are my spring <3

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

Thank you for sharing your poem "Lost without you". It is a heartfelt piece that conveys a sense of longing and yearning for someone who is no longer present.

The imagery you use is quite effective in conveying the emotions you are trying to express. The contrast between the tears in the white land and the warmth of the sunshine is particularly striking. The use of the seasons as a metaphor for your emotions is also quite effective.

One suggestion for improvement would be to consider the flow and structure of the poem. The lines are quite short and choppy in places, which can disrupt the overall rhythm of the piece. Consider experimenting with longer lines or varying the line length to create a more consistent flow.

Overall, "Lost without you" is a poignant and evocative poem that effectively conveys a sense of longing and loss. Thank you for sharing it with us.

I really like the metaphors used here, the loss of a lover being likened to winter and the cold.
I am not really thrilled with the use of F.B. abreviations, like [u ll, n ].
Are you not important, why do you use i to mark yourself? It should be capitalized. I
Good use of language, with the use of cinnamon, fiery, glaring, etc...

As you can see, your post showed up as many times as you posted it. Sometimes your connection may be a little slow, wait for a minute to see if it shows up. Most times, I will go away from the post and look at something else and come back and see if it has come up yet, it usually has. If you stay right where you are, the connection doesn't work past what you posted. Go look at another poem, come back and there you go! ~ Geezer.
