I have a problem /lit/

I was presented with a poem from a girl i like.
She's never showed it to anyone else than me and i really wanted to like it...

But i dont i found it somewhat obscene Its in danish and she uses alot of words which just sound wrong i cant justify why i think that

What do i say to her?
being honest is out of the question.
I need to provide positive praise and perhaps just a smidge of criticism.

TL;DR provide ideas on how to praise works you dont like.

Please i really need this

Baby, your poem is shit
Wait, don't go, please let me say

she said her poems were descriptions of situations like recreations.... I want to tell her what she wants to hear either that or perhaps just give her a new perspective of why it is a good poem.

she's not stupid

you just say something like "i don't know if i'm the best judge of poetry cuz i don't usually read it, buti thought it was really interesting, do you have more?" and then maybe ask her what inspired her to write it etc. etc. etc. you just get her to talk about it and then you avoid having to say much.

this way you aren't telling some girl you like that you hate her poem, but you're also not pretending to like it either.
