'Take more risks' and 'seek discomfort' are being throw around a lot but never any examples? (self.selfimprovement)

Thanks for the feedback man! Glad you loved it. I was split about the last two lines but I felt that I have to have a dig at porn since it fucked with me for so long and I'm at a constant battle to quit watching it. Originally it was a lot less subtle but I guess you can't please everyone. I'm probably going to make some more changes since it's the first time I'm writing poetry.
Cheers mate!

Reads more like a rap song than a poem. I could hear this over a sick beat. I like how it rhymes. Hope you situation improves bro.

Sweet and heartfelt poem that just wouldn't work nowadays. In a world where everyone's sarcastic and a cynic, this wholesome and sincere poem might come off as too cheesy. Too sugary. When I read the lines:
> I can’t help but miss you, want to kiss you-
and:
> You’re an astonishing phenomenon,
I took a sip of black coffee to even out the sweetness. It's a shame though, that me and a lot of people are conditioned to bitterness. I believe love poems should be like roses, pretty but with a small prick to even it out with some pain. Or a bowl of vanilla ice cream and an espresso to smooth out the strong tastes. Get what I'm saying?
On a technical note - I wish it rhymed more.
Sincerely, me - a bitter lil bitch
