This time, things will be better.
I'll walk through oceans and fire.
I'll walk through all the weather.

Hey, there. My name is Scarlett and I'll be reviewing your poem tonight.

This is short, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but for this, it definitely is. For a start, I don't really get this. There's no real flow, no imagery, no metaphors. And that is what makes a poem a poem. This, to me, just seems like four lines of random thought written down, and I'm sad to say that I can't even call this a poem. And neither can I give you a proper review.

So, i'm just going to say you should expand on this. Give me more. I want to know why you're feeling this, how you came to feel this. This...is just four random lines. And I can't really take anything from this. I'm sorry if I sound harsh, but you've given me a big question and no answers. I want more, and I know I've said that, but seriously, you have given me almost nothing. In fact, this feels incomplete, and that kind of bugs me. So, I'm sorry if I sound mean or anything. I really don't mean to. I'm just trying to help.

And, so, my friend. You have interesting snippet of poetry here. And I just have to say thank you for it, despite me wanting more. I do like it, though, but I can't really love it. Not yet. So I can really only say one thing here; expand on it, give me more to this story, and let me know. I'll come back to give it a proper review.

Hope this helped! And don't forget; Keep it up and never stop writing!

~Scar.

Look, it doesn't have to be long. These things aren't for an audience, they're for me. If you don't like it, stop reading my stuff.
