Guardian Angel *revised*

Sitting here in despair
dreaming I’m in your arms
four years I spent
breaking you down
just for you to be
built back up…
fifty times stronger…
Why?
What did I do?

I supported you
helped you…
defended you…
what more could I have done
to keep you where you were?

You still built them up…

What you don’t realize…
in the end,
even the strongest fall
the stronger you are…
the harder you fall
it’s how life is
whether you can face it or not
you can’t support those big walls
forever…
When you fall…
I will catch you

Because I am your guardian angel

flows well.. i really enjoyed reading this..

[Brad Nugent]

Really nice structure to this. It flows well, like an internal monologue - I can just imagine the person sitting, looking at the 'subject' of the poem and reciting these words in thoughts. Nice work.

This poem hooked me once I started reading, and the last line was very deep. Beautiful.

Such love for someone so diluted into thinking they can stay strong forever.

[Kenneth The Poet]

Nice work. Emotionally gripping.

[Ruth]

i love the crossed out wording, it gives it a pretty cool raw feeling

This is a good poem. Not sure why the strikeouts, imo it doesn't really add to the effect here. I found it a little distracting. Overall this is a good strong emotional poem that touches the reader. Keep your verb tense consistent and this is a superb winner.

The poem is beautiful and clearly shows the love an angel has for his human (the computer didn't add this part last time.)

I LOVE ANGELS!
