This is a very moving free verse. I think many find it relatable. I have one suggestion below for you to look at.

notes:

It's endlessly pouring love,

If he shuts his eyes I fall,

There is Point of View shift at this point. It goes from direct to indirect address.

The word obstacles is missing an s. This poem is too deep for me. That's a good thing. It leaves me thinking and applying some verses to my life situation. It's very good. Could you explain free verse? I like this poem format, but don't really know what's going on.

I love the image you selected for your poem. I so love how your begin your poem of love.
"The reflection of your pure soul,
Through the mirrors of your eyes, "
Indeed the eyes are the window to one's soul.
It is tragic though how demons between the love shared between two can distort the truth of love.
Thanks for sharing.

A lovely free verse poem for the contest! Is it based on a sonnet per your notes? It has 14 lines but no iambic pentameter so it should be fine for the free verse contest. Congratulations on the 50th post!
I liked how you portrayed the difficulties of a love relationship with the "demons" that are trying to separate the couple. There are so many things that attack marriages and families today.
Best wishes in the contest!

This is a nicely written, Shakespearean sonnet it flows very well when it is read aloud and it is very touching. May you have a wonderful weekend and may God bless you.

Hi Sarah,
Congrats on your 5oth post.
Nicely done free verse for the contest. Your notes say a Shakespearean sonnet and this is not one. If it was it wouldn't fit the contest.
This is a poem about how love is hard sometimes. It seems both of these people have personality issues that are weakening the bond. It seems the woman is depending too much on the man to light her way.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great weekend.
Good luck in the contest.
Joan

A fine free-fo rm poem, Sarah------and you've painted a picture with words, something I wish I was better at. I tend to be a Joe Friday type, just the facts, ma'am literalist

Wow. This is very beautiful, very dramatic and emotional! It does indeed seem Shakespearean! A great post, congrats on your milestone!
I want to mention, I redid the last verse of Emerged October Poem. Your review really stuck with me! About last verse, why the Big Kahuna would assist a dried leaf, I
don't know, haha, not sure if that line can pass muster. Maybe I can play it off like, who am I to question The Big Kahuna haha, guffaw, chortle?! Maddy
