I always had this smile
That would shine in people's hearts
I had my own style
Because in my mind 
Thats how im taught
But something downed on me
And i couldn't just let go
Then a frown they see
And it felt like they were not bestowed
By my thoughts
And the way i felt
But then that smile came back
When i saw he knelt
Beside me and grabbed my hand
"Im here for you always"
Thats his promise 
And i know thats a man
That will keep a woman protected
From harm

Very well written with a nice theme. It's nice to have poetry that shows what women want. Us guys still have no real clue lol. Great Job.
