Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that.

First off, I love how good this poem flows, each line easily drifts to the next, also, on line 3 you used You're instead of You Are and I feel that You Are would fit more better with the next 2 lines.

Heyo! This poem has a really nice rhyming scheme! I like the way you convey this vivid imagery of “love interest”. I think the lines “You are the changing of the tides / You are the fullest moon, the sun at rise”, really create a strong impression of this person, as if, they’re to a certain level, unpredictable. In the last lines, I like the idea of “lover’s light” representing a lighthouse. Thematically it’s well connected to the previous lines regarding the tides, storms, and waves. Overall it creates an interesting picture of the person, the numerous personality traits, regardless of their own contradictions. 

Really nice poem. 
Thank you

When these waves, become like mountains… 

I see your face, on the other side.

You’re everything that they all weren’t.

You are the changing of the tides.

You are the fullest moon, the sun at rise.

The all high sign of love and life.

Raise my sails, the shore’s in sight!

For on that rocky coast sits my lovers light!
