My newtest poem, about finding yourself, opinions and suggestions, please?

Question

'Find Yourself'

Growing confusing

Altering with age

On your journey

To find yourself

Don't rush

It takes time

It will be worth it

To find yourself

Reflect on the past

Gaze into the future

Imagine what it would be like

To find yourself

Who are you today?

Just some act

Refuse to be a clone

To find yourself

Close your eyes

Look deep inside

Recall what you see

To find yourself

Wilting confusion

Altering with age

Your journey will end

Apon finding yourself

What do you think?

Opinions?

Suggestions?

I am a 14 year old girl by the way, not that you should judge my poem based on that. I am just wondering, does this seem like a 14 year old's work? If not, aproximently what age or age group?

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I really like it a lot. It's very insightful, and I would've guessed it was written by someone older than 14...maybe by someone in their 30s, since it talks about not rushing and that it will be worth the wait: advice that someone older might give to a younger person.

One spelling error: Upon, not apon. Other than that, it's great!

Answer 2

i liked it and i cant give you an age group sorry....

Answer 3

i don't know much about poetry, but i thought that it was a pretty good poem. it was easy to relate to, at least for me.

Answer 4

It reads like a 17-18 yr old wrote it, a girl that has seen sorrow and knows now not to rush things and to enjoy loved ones and just live the time that she has.

I really didn't expect you to be 14.

Job well done=)
