Tears fell like rain, from all the years of pain. My life began to get rough, Meanwhile I pretended I was so tough. I told myself over and over, enough was enough. So one day I closed the door , I walked , And never looked back... Soon my life was on the right track. I often dreamed of a love that would be so true, My prayers were answered and he sent me you !! It all began with a single touch, Sparks flew, Although it may not seemed like much. Then we shared our first kiss, I never have felt such a feeling like this. In my mind, I was wondering if we were not moving to fast, But in my heart, I knew that this was something that was going to last. You are my soulmate, The love of my life, I have this wish, That one day I will become your wife. You are my lover, and my best friend, Your my gift sent from god. I will cherish you now and ever, I will love you forever.

The only thing concrete about this, is that it's not.

maybe liquid concrete. I suggest boning up on the classifications of poetry. this, and the other, are freeform.

A Concrete poem is a conglomeration of words (sometimes one word repeated over and over) whose overall shape is a key to the concept it presents. There are no truly agreed-upon conventions, but a natural elegance of arrangement is often striven for.

Sometimes the poem can be read in multiple directions from different starting points, depending on the shape of the form and the curiousity of the reader.
