Without End

Days go by
when my courage dies,
and my head is no longer high,
nor are my cheeks dry.
I cry.

You are there for me. Ceaselessly.

You lift my chin
and when my hope is thin
you begin,
to regain my courage within.
I grin.

I am cared for. Evermore.

When it is one of those days
when your skies are grey,
and your problems weigh.
By your side without delay.
I stay.

My love’s a guarantee. Eternally.

You found a way to renew
a life that was askew,
and for everything we have been through,
you have stayed true.
I thank you.

My time with you I spend. Without end.

Re: Without End

Overall, great concept. I generally have a problem with stanzas entirely rhymed, but I'll set aside my personal prejudice for a moment.

Quote:

I'd use "unceasingly" instead to end this line. It's just personal preference, but I think the vowel sounds in succession create a nice effect.

Quote:
when your sky’s are grey
A misused possessive mars this sentence. Skies is the plural form of sky, not sky's, which is the possesive form.

Quote:

I stay.
These lines are confusing, and it's because of the punctuation in the second line of the quoted passage. Either don't punctuate it at all or use a comma after "delay". I'd use a comma myself.

I really enjoyed the italic lines--the poem could have been made entirely from those, and it would have seemed a lot more effortless than it does in its current form, due to your insistence on rhyming every line in the stanzas. I'll admit that it flows, but I still think it's rather forced. So...next time, try a rhyme scheme that isn't so dense.

Re: Without End

The rhyme pattern was difficult, but you pulled it off decently, probably a lot better than I could've with such a pattern. Concept was good, and I loved the word "Ceaselessly" personally, it seemed like a smoother word when reading, then "unceasingly". Like I said, tough rhyme pattern, but for such a scheme you pulled it off ok, no huge issues if you just read through it, I'd actually have to look, and find a mistake, I didn't really see one while reading through, and since I did not I'm not gonna go looking for one. Good job.

Thumbs up Re: Without End

Wonderful! Marvelous! The rhyming was perfect and so too was the imagery you have written here. I rate 4/5!
