First of all, I like how you capitalize “Her” and “Love” to express how important those subject’s are. I do think the first two lines’ rhythm compared to the rest of the poem isn’t as smooth (but of course, that’s my personal opinion). A suggestion, though, might be to change the second line to “Just Her beauty alone made my knees go weak”? It’s one syllable longer, but I think it flows better. Otherwise, great poem!

Favorite lines:
“Her eyes are as deep as the roaring sea.
Falling in at first glance was impossible to foresee.”

Edit: I realized you don’t exactly capitalize “her” the entire time, but I do think that would be a nice detail to add.

No problem! Considering that the second lines is the only thing I’d really change, this was really well written.
