Everyone goes by,
running, rushing, ignoring.
And then you were there,
stopping, turning, noticing.

You became my light,
my Savior, my Hero, my love.
You became my companion,
My teacher, my Beacon, my Shield.

Will you stay with me,
laughing, caring, loving.
Or will you go away,
Running, Rushing, Ignoring?

I really enjoyed this poem. I loved the original writing style and beat. Not only were the words meaningful but this poem also glides smootly through your mind. Great job.

I like it! Very simplistic, as said before, but there was a deeper connection, and I liked it. Good job. 5/5
