Question:I don't think it is one of my best, but I thought it up last night while helping someone else with her poem. Comments welcome.

School Troubles

Homework piles high,
A daunting task ahead,
‘I’m going to die’
Runs through my mind.
Hours pass slowly by,
Half of which I worked,
Night falls to day
With still work to be done.
Weeks pass to no avail,
The pile never stops
And my grades topple,
Crawling to rock bottom.
‘What am I going to do?’
I ask myself as failure rolls by,
‘What is the point to even try?’

College looms in my eye,
A goal that must be reached.
A mighty sigh and back to work,
The pile must be mastered,
Another sleepless night,
But not a minute wasted.

Within a month I knew,
I’m going to college after all.
A weary smile awakes,
Summer is not so far away,
I think I will survive this year,
With only one more to go,
College here I come!

talking about school makes you seem younger and less educated on other aspects of life... i would suggest writing about deeper things if you want to be a more respected poet

OMG THIS POEM IS SOO GOOD
i luv it this would be the best poem i have
ever READ!!!! I wish i could write like you!
Your must be really smart i luv ur language it makes
you feel as if your experiancing it instead of just reading
it.! :)

holy crap i feel like the same way except i still don't feel like i'll survive in college. but the time to go is coming whether i like it or not. graduation is so scary.
