SOMETIMES
Someone says your name
Somewhere in a crowd
Sometimes I'll feel a pain
If I hear them reference you out loud
Sometimes I'll recall
A tender moment, here or there
Sometimes I'll see your face
Beneath cascading, jet-black hair
Sometimes I'll try to blank
Those fleeting thoughts of you
Times I heard you say
Need to find that someone new
Sometimes I'll feel the love
Each stolen moment that we shared
Times you said you loved me
Times you said you cared
Sometimes the urge to weigh
The good against the bad
I'll then remember with a smile
All the good times that we had
Somewhere in a crowd
Sometimes I'll feel a pain
If I hear them reference you out loud
Sometimes I'll recall
A tender moment, here or there
Sometimes I'll see your face
Beneath cascading, jet-black hair
Sometimes I'll try to blank
Those fleeting thoughts of you
Times I heard you say
Need to find that someone new
Sometimes I'll feel the love
Each stolen moment that we shared
Times you said you loved me
Times you said you cared
Sometimes the urge to weigh
The good against the bad
I'll then remember with a smile
All the good times that we had

I wouldve loved to see some imagery throughout the poem. On the flip side, the flow of the poem seems solid because there was nothing that really had me stop or distract me from the poem as a whole which is good. Keep the writes
