I don't know what I do
to see inside your heart
But when you came upon me
I simply fell apart.


I want to know the warmth
that resides deep within
I can't explain my feelings
like the strings of violin.


I don't know what to do
to keep you in my heart
I'm not all that deserving
but perhaps maybe restart?


I just want to thank you
for being there for me
You showed me how to fall in love
and now you've set me free.

This is about the conflicting feelings on falling in love with someone - through the highs and the lows. I hope my English is not too bad ;v;

I love the direction the poem is going. While the subject itself may not be all that original, you certainly put your own twist to it. But then again, that's an author's job, isn't it? I enjoy how the B lines of every couplet rhyme and not the others. It's slightly unusual but everything flows together beautifully. I feel the weakest part of the poem may be the middle two stanzas, but I don't think I'm seeing the whole picture when it comes to the metaphors. However, you started and ended really strong and that's wonderful!
The other thing I would like to mention is the final stanza, it's very strong but gives a sense of finality there. I adore the line "You showed me how to fall in love and now you've set me free". That's the part that gives a sense of something ending, but you said it's about falling in love. It makes the reader question if this love is returned or not, and that's good. You WANT the reader to think, and that last line in particular stuck with me after I was done reading, leaving me to think about it.
Overall, I believe this is a very simplistic piece, but very good in it's own rite. Your English isn't that horrible, so don't worry about that.
Good job, keep it up! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>
