But whatever happens...

You may believe the world is against you

But whatever happens you’ll always have me

You may believe there’s nowhere to turn

But whatever happens you can always turn to me

You may have times when you just want to cry

But whatever happens you can cry on me

You may have times when you fall to pieces 

But whatever happens you can fall on me

You may have times when everyone is behind you

But whatever happens I’ll be first in line

You may have times when you feel on top of the world

But whatever happens I’ll be right by your side

You may have times when you cannot go on

But whatever happens I will drag you along

You may have times when you suffer in silence

But whatever happens I’ll break the silence with song

There may be a time when you don’t need me anymore

But whatever happens right there I’ll still be

There will be a time when it’s my turn to need you

But whatever happens will you be beside me?

Whatever may befall us there is always Love that will bind us, save us, help us through the good and the bad. A love poem concerning utter and complete devotion to the one you love, eternally.

'Tis a beautifully sweet poem about what Love can accomplish and to never give up on someone you love, to support and encourage them no matter what occurs. Well-written, my friend.

A very enjoyable read, Fellow Traveler. Keep on going. ;)

Poetry isn't usually my strongest format.
Thank you for your feedback, i appreciate it greatly.

I would disagree with you here. I've only read this poem you have posted here but I see a fair amount of potential within it. Just try writing more, you just might discover you have a knack for it, my friend. :)

I suppose its all trial and error, as is life.

It is at first and feel free to make it rhyme or just don't make it rhyme at all, make it free-form like me. My earlier poems on this site are pretty bad but my last dozen or so poems have been very well received.

I sent you 2 read requests partly to give you an example of my poetry and to show you how you could do poetry well. Just let me know what you think of them. ;)

[SamSim27]

Thank you. I will have a look :)

This a good piece. A lot of sincerity which is heart felt.
I sense somewhat of a bitter feeling at the end. I think that's the main question. Will those, for whom we've been present, be there for us? It's a question only time can answer.
A good write and I liked it. 😊👍

[SamSim27]

Thank you.
The ending was not intended to be bitter, more of a genuine question .. some of us spend our whole lives trying to support and love other people that sometimes we forget to ask the most basic of questions like "Are you there for me?" Or "Can you help me?"
Thanks for the review, feedback is always greatly received :)

I totally understand that part and relate to it too. But these things, you can expect from a person but can never really explain..
You're welcome 😊
