Running full speed ahead
Dodging every obstacle
Jumping, swerving, ducking
Not looking back
It’s not always that easy
With no way to return to the past
A wall blocks your path
Too high to get over
Too low to get under
You’re stuck in the middle
Don’t just stare
Don’t sit and do nothing
It’s just another obstacle
You’ve overcome them before right?
Obstacles teach us
They shape us
And will only make us stronger

So this was one of my "writers block" pieces. I finally when I was sitting in Chicago (7 hours....grrr). Wanna know how I finished? I was listening to my ipod and "Wanna Be Starting Somethin" by Michael Jackson came on. It didnt really inspire this, but I took the lines "Too high to get over...stuck in the middle" and stuck them in my poem and....well here ya go
Edit: I changed the spelling from "to" so it's now"too. Sorry for my lack of grammar skills...that stuff never bothers me, so I hardly ever notice it, wether it be in my own stuff or other peoples. |

Could I make one suggestion, though? If you have someone who you don't mind reading your poetry, you could have them proofread it for you. It's just little things (like "to" vs. "too" in this case, or misspelled words in some other ones) and if they were cleared up, it would make a world of difference (to me, anyway, because I get distracted by these things.)
In summary, I love your poetry, but people can focus on the beautiful meaning better when there aren't those little mistakes, you know?
But really, I'm not trying to be evil. That's just my one suggestion

Being away at school is like living in a tiny microcosm of humanity that exists in the impossible realm of kids with no parents and no homes; a concentrated cell of unreality that is supposed to give birth to adequately functioning members of society.
