    This is a really nice poem, when reading it I wondered if the voice was meant to be a person? Perhaps I person you (or the voice in the poem) had lost? Or whether like another poster is was just a voice of the person who was thinking it. Either way it doesnt matter, I dont think it needs to be clarified or anything like that, just a thought I had when I was reading it.
    Hope it did well in the contest! Xx

    I enjoyed reading this. I agree you do have to give everything you have to make it work. Just give it your best shot and go with the flow.

    I don't quite get what this poem is about. Ican't tell if you are listening to the good voice or the bad one. I dont know. Sometimes I mis-interpret poems. But, your rhyming skill was awesome. so 4/5

    Hm. I liked this a lot.

    "There's this distinct voice in the distance.
    It speaks to me everyday.
    And the more it speaks, the more clearer it gets.
    The more clearer it gets, and the more it makes sense.
    This voice gives me the advice I need,
    The kind-of advice I need to keep strong and hang on no matter what may happen."

    ^^ Okay. "..the more clearer it gets." <--- This should read one of two ways, I believe -- "..the more clear it gets.." or "..the clearer it gets.." Both "more" and "clearer" are not needed together.

    ["If you want something so bad, you have to fight for it. It isn't just going to come easy."]

    ^^ I loved these lines here. It's completely true.

    "So, I just keep holding on,
    Because I can't let those feelings of you go.
    If I let go, all these feelings will fall apart,
    I will no longer have them in me, and I won't feel them anymore. "

    ^^ The second & third line -- I don't like the repetition here. It's good, I just think it could be reworded so as not to directly repeat.

    Overall; I liked this. Not as much as some of your other work, but this is good. The word choice was alright, but it could have been better. 4/5
