"I am"

A/N: My last work for the day. This is a poem that I made for my teacher when I was 12.

I am a shy person

I wonder if I don't succeed by myself

I hear my sister is going to college

I am a person who is trying to make friends

I pretend I am not myself

I feel like I am in a plot of a story

I touch the feelings of the character

I worry of they don't like me

I cry when I am heartbroken

I am a person who never give up

I understand that I can get that

I say I can be successful

I dream of being a director and actress

I try to make my dreams come true

I am someone

Sorry that this is short, but this is a sweet poem, and you wrote this when you were twelve? This is wonderful. Keep it up.

Hey there, here's what I thought -

(This kind of reminded me of when I was 8 or 9 and was just starting to come up with ideas for poetry!)

It was lovely.

It was a refreshing read because it was so simple and pure; and being a 12 year old's poem, it was interesting to read because at that age, we have so much on our minds, but not always enough words to express it. And I also noticed how every line begins with an 'I'. I used to do that too!

There are a few typos though (I wonder if they're actually typos or if this is all just a direct copy of the original poem)

1) I worry of if they don't like me
2) I am a person who never give gives up

I can't leave without telling you that this line made me smile -

I dream of being a director and actress


... still smiling (:

Regards,

From a 12 year old's point of view- Aspirations are everything. You've done a great job by proving that.
All kids want to be a princess, a hero, batman, an astronaut and so many other things.
You've emphasized on the fact that you ARE someone. You have your own identity. What perked my interest was- "I pretend I am not myself"

Why would you have written that?

Over all, it was really nice!
Director and actress? What about a pro-writer? ;)

Hey, Shiny's here to review! :D
So, I get what you're trying to achieve here. Actually, you made it quite clear.
Knowing that you were 12 when you wrote this, I won't judge it. Or nitpick at it. I'll just tell you that your point was proven, and I really liked it.

Hey Pinkiegirl13. I hope you are doing fine.

I am here for a mini review. Well this is great (when we see it from an angle of a twelve years old kid). It is simple and straight to the point. I like your poems because of this.

However, the format isn't one of the best and the punctuation aren't used at all. Well I suppose it is due to the fact that you didn't change your six years old poem!

And I do agree with you first line (you are shy and it sometimes make others feel you are ignoring them!)

I don't really bother about grammatical mistakes and all; they are way too easy to make and I am sure someone else can do it for you if they are kind enough.

But frankly, I liked your poem and I hope you shall become a great director and an actress ;) But don't stop writing then!

Have a great night.

Cheers.

Hello Pinkiegirl13!

Much better than mine was when I wrote it! Mine had a lot to do with my pet chickens that no one understood at all why I loved them so much. I wish that I had put something more sensible in it because I shared it with the rest of the school XP. Poetry was NOT my strong suit then. Or at least that's what my grades told me.
