Feelings

I'll never understand this.
My feelings for you of love.
They struck me without warning.
From heavens up above.
I've tried to protect myself,
by not letting them in.
And without any warning,
these feelings they begin.
Blinded by a passion,
a look,
a touch,
a kiss.
And in my mind I think of you.
It's only you I miss.
Now it's time to close my eyes.
and pretend that you are near.
Until next time I see you.
my heart will keep you here.

Nice poem!May I ask who you went through to get your poems published?
I have some poems I would like to get published myself,would you be willing to help me?
Catch some of mine under"Casual Poetry by Rod F Cutler" Tell me what you think,Ok?

EXCELLENT !!

Very Nice

If you want to get some poems published rod you can always try poetry.com. They have a contest, you can enter that and you don't need to go any further with the compitition after that if you don't want to. Basicaly they'l send you an E-mail or letter in the mail asking to publish your poem if they like it (it really isn't hard to get excepted so I'm sure you can do it ) It's free so thats cool. There are a couple downsides though. You can only enter one poem within a certain time frame and you'l get "spam / mail" if they like your poem. The reason I call it spam / mail is because it'l change depending on the opinion of the person who gets it. What they are basicaly is letters that say you've won an award of some kind and they wan't you to purchase it... which to me isn't an award its a product but whatever So yeah, if you give them concent to publish your poem it'l be in a book... and out there somewhere... they'l then give you the option of buying the book your poem is in This is the only FREE way I know to get your poems published but if you do a google search you can find all kinds of places willing to pulish. The only thing they may ask is that you have a certain amount of poems written. GL

I didn't get spammed from them... At least 2 of mine was through them.

Thank you all so much for your kind words everyone!

congratulations cyn!!!
great poem!!

continued success

Very nice...congrats on getting published

That's good that you didn't because its anoying as hell lol If you do get mail from them it really is subjective as to weather or not its spam. It's a good poem anyway Keep it up.
