Hold me close to you
While you croon a lullaby
Of a thousand tales

With each soft sweet note
I gain the strength, the courage
To sing along as well.

This is a piece of basically me getting over certain obstacles that I couldn't have overcome without support.

I like the idea behind your poem

but

The last line of the second verse has 6 syllables

to sing a-long as well

along is two syllables

other than that it was pretty good though
