In eb

I waited for your flow return.

I waited and waited

Moon to sun-

I waited.

I praise and curse

Gravity

It drew you into my life

And out just as fast.

I wanted to share so much more with you

But I could not stop it.

You were taken away with the ebb

And instead of flowing back to me

You flew on-

Hello!
This poem has a lot of sweet sentiments that I feel a lot of us can relate to. Most people have been left behind by someone or other they care about, I'm sure, so this poem can really relate to people.
However, other than that initial "yeah, I can relate to this," I'm not sure anyone will remember this poem. There's not really anything special about it that would stick with me over the years. I think part of this is because while you do have a nice central image of ebb and flow (also you're missing a b in your title, I think), you don't really have concrete images that the reader can picture super duper clearly in his or her mind. I suggest making a bigger deal out of these waves and relying more on metaphor to get your point across. If you want your poem to be just nice, you can keep it how it is, but if you want it to be memorable, I suggest taking it up a notch. If you don't know how to do this now, I think the best way is to just practice and make mistakes! Don't be afraid to try things that are a little "out there," and people can tell you if they think it worked or not.
I hope this helped.
Great job, and keep writing!
