TeenInk How would you rearrange this old cliche? "You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar" http://t.co/xTNZxcKYxK

TeenInk If this is the ending of the story, what is the beginning? http://t.co/gRzPosYXRi
Hey!!!(:
I will look at at least one of your poems if you read/ comment/ rate my poem "Cold Shoulder'. You can find it on the front page of the free verse section. Of course, feel free to look at any others of mine if you like that one!
Please tell me which poem you'd like me to r/r/c, otherwise I'll just pick a random one.(:
Thanks!

Here is the start to one of my songs:
Chorus: And I love you every minute every hour. I even think about you in the shower. No matter what I do my mind is ruled thoughts of you. So baby this song is my love letter. Cause when I look at you my heart starts to flutter
When I look at you my spine sends out a quick shudder.
1st verse:
I see you standing over there on the street corner smiling like you do.
You caught my eye and I won’t lie you never let it go.
I must admit when I got bit by the love bug
I think it saved my life.
And I love you every minute every hour. I even think about you in the shower. No matter what I do my mind is ruled thoughts of you. So baby this song is my love letter. Cause when I look at you my heart starts to flutter
When I look at you my spine sends out a quick shudder.
I love this! "i think about you in the shower" haha. This is completely relatable without being entirely cliche.
In the chorus, I think you're missing a word. "is ruled thoughts of you". Did you mean "by" or "with"? If you didn't, it could still work. You would just need to add a hyphen. It would then be " my mind is ruled- thoughts of you." Whichever way will work!
Also, this is just a suggestion, since you're talking about your mind and "thinking about you" in the beginning, I think it would sound nice if instead of "my heart starts to flutter" "my mind starts to flutter". But that may change the whole poem, so don't do it if that's not the message you want to send across!
You can definately make it longer though! I'm excited to read the rest of it.(:
p.s. in addition to "Cold Shoulder" would you mind reading "Humbly Beautiful"?
Thanks-
You're an amazing writer.
