Question:

What do people think about my poem and how do you go about getting stuff published - mind you im only 17!?

A vision to be in a place were time doesn??t matter,
that facing me lay nothing except a path to wander upon,
were I??d no longer need to co-exist along side time.
Were all things are achievable without the resonance of a
harassing
clock behind my shoulder.
In opposition, what decisions would I make if it weren??t
Inhabited by tomorrow?
Would the pressure of time hinder me to put things right?
Or in fact is time the essence of life and how
all things can be achieved?
Does each moment inside time imprison the core of my
being and all that follows?
Would my thoughts transcend into nothing if I had no time
to prevent my self from thinking?
Will time stand motionless if I stop moving and all before me
decides to seize, or will time persist with out the
acknowledgment that I??m no longer following?
The resolution to no longer follow time gives me space to
comprehend that this elusive emotion is indicating
tht I hve liberty to view everything withinin time frm were time began

Its good. There is a very clear pattern of thought, my only suggestion would be to try to explore different ways you can express the notion of "time" without repeating the word as much....the less we hear/read something the more powerful it becomes when mentioned. Give us the idea in various words and let the reader fill in the blanks.

try submitting to poetry magazines there are some around online as well as in publication that take submissions via mail. I believe you can also self publish at poetry.com.

hope this helps!
