    Having a blast with my dad.
    a nice summer day with no school,
    playing outside with my few neighbors,
    house and tag were always my favorite.
    come to find out it was just being around them.

    My dad is now always mad.
    Cutting fist came into effect.
    playing magic at the lunch tables.
    basketball camp / playing in my driveway all day long.
    just playing games with my neighbors before they moved away.

    Accounting class with Duffy (my newest friend).
    the whole day to listen to music,
    while cutting a little more often.
    soccer and track knowing they were not my friends,
    every night thinking about putting this life to an end.

    Freedom from the parents.
    starting off the era being "popular".
    liking a girl that would never fall for me.
    cutting now a daily ritual,
    and the only reason I have not put my life to an end.

    Done with the core classes, on with accounting,
    assigning more work than any student could ever do.
    bi-yearly weekend visit with the parents.
    dating a girl who has no time for me.
    cutting has been traded for faith.

    God had all of this in his plans.
    Now the only studying is for the test,
    that will grant me what I once didn’t want.
    But, through His sacrifice and endless love,
    He has turned this skeptic into a faithful believer.

      Criticisms: the last stanza has powerful meaning,certainly. but you might have deflated the tension a little. what i mean is, "endless love" has ben written before. "turning the skeptic into a believer" has been done before, know what i mean? the meaning is there, but it would be better if you rewrote this and showed exactly why this character is faithful now.

    Praises: SINCERITY. This is the first thing I look for in a person, not just an artist. This poem screams sincerity, which I really dig. Specifically, I liked "cutting has been traded for faith." Sweet line. I also liked the part about moving to college and falling for a girl that wouldn't go out with you. Very very relatable to every guy who reads this. The poem is APPLICABLE and therefore, meaningful.

    Good, very good.

      Wow.That was great.A lot of people write about this sort of stuff,like cutting,problems with their life but this seemed orignal the way you worded it.And the ending where things are fixed and you have found your faith was great.The only problem I found was in the beginning where you said" My dad is now always mad" I think the words could be flipped aroudn to sound better .And also "just chilling with my neighbors" chilling could definately be changed to a more descriptive word but other than that it was perfect.
