Living threw life is difficult enough such in a rush to leave high school not knowing where my next landing will be, struggling and stressing at most is where my life stood still a steadily beat one thing after another problems occurring left and right fast decisions you have to make deadlines you have to meet what's next I'm only one in a group of 1000 more competitive people I'm not trying to be on the very top I'm just trying to be the most successful I can be

First off, I can totally relate with this. It is relatable to and has an interesting structure and form. There are a few spelling errors and I do agree with Daniel, perhaps a bit more detail would help. Nice job!

Mhm.....this poem was really intersting the way you wrote was interstng. I liked your ending stanza. My onlu suggestion is maybe adding a tad bit more detail or a hook at the end. Other than that it was awesome
