There

I will be a lighthouse
If fog makes you lose your way.

I will be a lifeguard
If waves go over your head and you are too weak to get back up to the surface.

I will be a star
On the darkest, stormiest night when all you can do is stumble.

I will be there.

Hello BD6, lovely poem. It's

Hello BD6, lovely poem. It's powerful. I like your ideas of lighthouse, lifeguard and star. I tweaked one line because it seems too long, IMO. Take or toss. Title, theme, spacing and all else is fine. All the best, Gracy
