I Am

I am Sydney

I wonder about my life and career 

I hear how farfetched my dreams are

I see potential in everyone and everything

I am a dreamer

I pretend to be characters in the stories I write 

I feel loved by my friends 

I touch others hearts with my words

I worry about strangers more than myself

I am broken

I understand its time to move on 

I say I'm strong enough 

I dream for tomorrow 

I try to love everyone 

I hope to change 

I am me

Author's Note

This was an assignment in my history class and i thought i would share it. Also I've never written a poem before, so I'm open for criticism

You've never written a poem before? Wow! This was pretty good. =) The only thing I would suggest is puncuation, like putting commas and periods after some of your lines. I don't know too much on puncuation in poetry though, so I can't tell you exactly where it's needed. I like how you described yourself. =) Yourself is the best you that you can be. Keep writing!!

For your first poem this is very good! I could feel your emotions throughout as I was reading. I can so agree with you on how you said that you pretend to be the characters in the stories you write and I do the same as well. I don't know what it is, I guess that it makes you have more fun with the story, but you may think otherwise. Once again I really loved your poem! Sorry I was a little late on reading and replying on it, but I'm glad I got to have time to read and review it! Great job and keep writing!
