Yeeey, my first praise Thanks a lot.

@twillight:
And first comments. Quite a few of them, thanks for your time.

Hmmm, I indeed never care about that, as long as numbers are so-so similar... Somehow I see taking care about that as making a strict form, which I'm still not into. More precisely, I feel I'm still not that good, to say what I want and make it fit a strict form. But to be honest, I haven't even tried.

Oh yes, I am aware of that. Similar, I also do keep same vocals, but not necessary rhymes. I hope I will improve that, but I also need to improve my English. I often get stuck.

Actually, theme would be my view or understanding of love, at least from this aspect, not exactly love with specific person. I don't really think I should explain much the theme of the song, since you should figure it out your way and give me your opinion, like you did now. I wasn't expecting this reaction, since song makes sense to me (surprise surprise ). Now this proves that feedback is very important

It refers to "Feelings" from the previous line. Perhaps my English again?

Well, thanks a lot. I had a rhythm in my head while writing, so it's nice to hear that that part is ok

Well, like I said, the song isn't really about love, at least for me. I am re-questioning my need for love and what love really brings while you have some inner struggles. My personal point in this song would be that love is not the meaning of life, although it is important. Between two relationships, I feel very eager to start a new one, although previous love wasn't a solution to my inner problems and questions. So, I don't like the fact that "need for love" may be running away from those questions and even thou I will fall in love again, there are things I can solve only by myself alone.

Naturally, you can't know my own point, which is normal and IMO the way it should be. Like I said, feedback can be very useful to understand how will other see the song and there is surely room for improvements.
