It doesn't quite get the misery of the unrequited across; you're still in the 'it will happen eventually' stage.Try again when the full desperate horror of knowing that it never will happen hits you.Good luck

“it kills me” – the intensity of his love being repelled and made to endure the suffering of waiting for her is maximise and compared to the taking of life- Personified to show deep emotions

“I am chained to you as fish to sea…” – Very emotive and appeals to the senses and heart- With the senses, his love is bounded and he uses the natural world for emphasise of magnitude and importance; to describe the close bound and just such the fish needs the sea to survive and that has been the case since day 1, his love shows longevity and deep desire to be unite and its “natural”

“Such love as this must sweep all walls away!” – the “must” reflects a surety of the oncoming and the strength of the passion that will be unleashed. Love is personified and taken to a degree of strength, power, independence that will surely overcome anything but…

“Until then, this sorrow will remain:
My hope of joy must be my source of pain” – After having deeply explored the prospect of the sheer intestity of his love to her, reality brings back the reality of unrequited love and the author surrenders to it knowing that after suffering the pain of unreturned love, there is hope of joy. Reality in the last line conflicts with the high optimism in the first. This is the nature of unrequited love, you’re in Limbo. You love but can’t have!

(I hope that my comment title thing didn't offended anybody)

I LOVE YOU! All of your poems are great...no, actually AMAZING! I can relate to them 100%, but hiya does have a point: YOU NEED TO LIVE A LITTLE!

but other than that, your poems are brilliant...you're an astounding poet! I wish that I could express my inner thoughts and feelings as well as you. You should praise God (or whoever/whatever you believe in) for the marvelous gift that has been bestowed upon you! I hope that you will continue writting poems and expressing your deep emotions of love and unrequited love! :D good work!
