I thought this was pretty good. However, you might consider changing "have" in the fifth line to "hold" and rearranging the seventh line to "No more blue I will be" to give it a more poetic tilt to it.
Overall, you have a good rhythym going here that stays fairly consistent throughout and the rhyming itself seems natural. Very nice job.
I really enjoyed this poem - my only major criticism is that its too short! LOL But the ending is well done, very sharp and pointed - kind of like a lance hehe.
"These are my feelings. That is my answer. Please no harsh dealings. Don't spear like a lancer."
I like the first two lines of this stanza - they are confusing, but intentionally so, and I like the way you get straight to the point (God, sorry, I dont know where all these puns are coming from). The third and forth lines feel a bit contrived though...I particularly didnt like lancer, it just didnt seem to fit, although I understand how needing a rhyme can make a poet desperate LOL. I'd change those two though - keep the ideas, just the words dont work.
"I have my heart for you. I trust you above all. No more will I be blue. Don't let me fall."
I agree with Nate, "have" should be "hold" - it makes more sense. Other than that, I really like this stanza though. Particularly the end, as I already pointed out (ack, there I go again). I like the whole sentiment behind the poem, I can really relate to going out on a limb so to speak and hoping someone will hold you up...Good job.
I am always saying "Glad to've met you" to somebody I'm not at all glad I met. If you want to stay alive, you have to say that stuff, though. — Holden Caulfield
