how do i write poetry and make it sound good and romantic?

The biggest mistake people make is that they try to sound like a poet. And no "I'm lying awake at night, thinking of you." business. Poetry is an opportunity to express yourself where every word means something. Every line should stand on its own. Every stanza could tell the whole story.
