    Love for this poem <3
    Straight from your heart ^^
    And girl, I'm absolutely in love with this stanza;
    "I'll make my dreams come true,
    regardless of the obstacles in my way.
    I'll keep walking down the road,
    to a more successful day."

    It's beautiful. Also because of the nice flow in this poem, it read very plesently.
    Very nice, I hope you win the contest ^^

    I found the overall flow and rhythm of this to be very good. You kept a steady pace throughout, which helped form a well-written poem.

    "I'm a simple girl,
    and I'm easy to please.
    I don't see my life as a loan,
    I've done paid off my fees."

    ^^ I think the last line should be: "I'm done *paying* off my fees", or simply "I've paid off my fees", but I don't think the latter would work so well.

    "I can't fail unless I give up,
    and I'm not that kind of girl.
    My life is worth living,
    I'm going to give it a whirl."

    ^^ I didn't like the last rhyme here. Although what you're saying mostly makes sense, it kind of sounded forced, just so you had a word that rhymed with "girl".

    "I'll make my dreams come true,
    regardless of the obstacles in my way.
    I'll keep walking down the road,
    to a more successful day."

    ^^ I *loved* this stanza, especially the ending. I got this image of somebody winning a huge prize or something, like a medal - IDK, just being successful really. The last line was so full of hope for the future, a drive to be successful. It's very nice to see that.

    I also enjoyed the last stanza. It was quite a nice way to finish it off. Nicely done.

    You used lots of different and diverse words that i had never even thought of using in a poem. well done. the flow and thought provoking phrased added to this poem, made it more stronger and ... (finding right word) .. unique.

    5/5 David

    Wow. This poem is full of determination and positivity! I love your positive attitude in this poem, if you didn't have it.. you'd have a hard time in life. (: I love how you say in the poem.. "My dreams are big." I love this, because IMO, dreaming big is the way to go. :] If you don't dream big, then what would you be dreaming for? This just totally reminds me of when Dave Cook sang "If you don't dream big, then what's the point in dreaming?" Anyway, this poem is full of a positive attiude and I loved it so much. Great write. 5/5.

  • Good poem.
    Flowed well and rhymed nicely.
    Its a very positive poem. Which is good.
    Keep it up 5/5

    Aw, this is great! I read your profile (I love piercings and tatoos, too!!), so I'm guessing this poem is straight from the heart and not made up like some. It was really positive and I think it's great that you're getting your GED and going to college. Alas, I still have another 2 [freakin' long] years of high school left. I loved your poem. I'd give it a 10 if I could!

    I am not sure this one is grammaticly sound
    I've done paid off my fees.
    maybe lakc of a comma

    but in over all , you talked a lot abnout your self every single reason and i am all understadnign and supporting why you should walk tall ,
    and never give up ,
    as a poem , it is great even some lines are not structured the same syllabus lenght

    in over all i loved this one becasue it make me forget these small error and focus on your essential : who you are
    :)
    great work

    Wow i love it!!!!

    it has alot of confidence and made me smile.

    you remind me of myself in this poem. sometimes you gotta be strong and keep going no matter what comes along.

    "I've done paid off my fees."

    ^^in this line "i've done" seems wrong.. i think "i've already" sounds alot better.

    but other than that it was a great read. 5/5
