It isn't cheating at all. I read from somewhere that after a while, one can return to it and edit it so that the piece would improve. I am glad that it helped. And I have read your poem:
I liked how you connected all your stanzas, with the beginning and following lines that return to the main idea presented in the first stanza. And you present an interesting notion about love, which I think is very true. Love is blind, but hate is the antithesis. Yet it is sadly easier to hate than love, which you also showed. Keep up the good work.
