 My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.
 THE POEM
A poem about the power of love.
 WHAT I LIKED
I liked the message, appealing to the Higher power as well as more 'human' type love.
 STRUCTURE
This is free form poem. There is no apparent rythme scheme.
MECHANICS
I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. The poem is easy to read.
DESCRIPTIONS
I liked: "Like a candle in the wind, so I get on my knees," This is in the middle of a shift of thought, but I think it hits on 2 things -- doubt about fading passion and a shift to appealing to a more? steadfast passion -- the love of God. It evokes a powerful scene and hints at deeper emotion.
PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS
The opening draws in the reader well, putting them in the moment, and keeps them reading. The title is a great fit for the poem "Semper Fidelis" - Always Faithful. Heartfelt expression.
** Found on my Newsfeed, recommended poetry read.
