This is a poem i wrote about a year ago so one of my first. tell me what you think.
All in a matter of moments
And what I thought was there is not.
As quickly as life drives by, it waves goodbye
To the hope that we live on
And forgive from.
You have spoilt my chance
To continue this dance through the world
On which I am spinning.
My hair is thinning,
Yet my vision ceases to see a beginning...
Could I realise you?
Undo the ghastly things that you do
Solely to see your frowning?
Or shall I risk drowning in myself
Because you refused to swim?

Wow, I really like this! No, seriously, I really do! Great work!
Something that really struck me was that the style was so different form what I've read before. So, yeah, your style of writing poems is cool.
I only have a few things to point out:
This sounds a bit awkward, because 1) The "and" kind of lengthens the line out, making it unbalanced with the previous line, and 2) the poem is in past tense, but the statement "is not" is in the present tense.
Because "because" is in the beginning of the second line, insert a period at the end of the line before it.
Once again, great work! I hope my critique helped.
Yours truly,
