Wake Up!

@Maria, with that stanza, I really meant, just wake up. Don't waste your life doing things that are not as important as the bigger picture. Drinking, drugs, or whatever else.

I tried to describe that a little bit with this..

You get one life, and what you make it,
Don't be a fool, and mistake it;

But often, with a short poem, a message is rather hard to get by perfectly. Thanks for the constructive criticism. I appreciate it a lot!

I think I might rewrite this one, but make the message more clear. Because I don't want people to think I'm on the podium that is portrayed. Nothing is impossible.. And I want everyone to get the most out of life. Just, not "waste" it away with things that don't matter in the bigger picture.

Overall this poem was well written, but I'm not sure I 100% agree with message.

We're always trying to find ourselves, who we are and who we are meant to be. I can relate to that, and I'm sure many others can do the same, but I don't believe we should ignore what is said to be impossible. You might view it as a "simple dream", but that doesn't make it one. This is just what I gathered from this poem, but as I said it was well written and you did a good job. Definitely a snap to reality, but I don't think we should limit ourselves to what we're fed to believe.

Very well done. I enjoyed. Liked the wording you have used. It is a nice realization poem that most of us in this world do not know. Good job keep it up.

"For nothing more than a simple dream;
Everything's not how it seems"

this is my favorite line i love the realization in it that most people dont see in real life you did a good job at presenting a presence of ourselves that most people dont ever think to look at or think about you did a good job!!
