Hey Em! I'm Myth and I'll be reviewing your poem today.
While reading the poem, I could make out that the idea behind it was how you do things without a purpose or sometimes without even without knowing what you're doing, when you're sixteen.
Some grammatical and rhythmic errors I'd like to point out are:
They say when you’re 16
Life is a stress-filled haze
There should be a comma after "16" and a semicolon after "haze", because, you see there should be a pause after "16", and there are multiple clauses after haze, that you need to separate from this line.
They never said how confusing it is.
Here, you need to replace the full stop with a comma, since it is only a minor pause, and stopping the sentence there, would disrupt your flow.
Another thing about your poem was, that there was no monotonous rhythm to it, and there were a few ups and downs in the flow because there were too many syllables jammed into a single line. Maybe some different wording in a few lines may do the trick?
That's pretty much all the problems there are. You've got a clear idea. You just have to work on your flow.
KEEP WRITING!!!!
Your sincerely,
Myth
