Below is the most recent poem I've written. It is an acrostic poem and its semi rhymed and I stuck to a 10 syllable per line rule. I just started writing poetry recently. I tried to covey a lot of different idea and images in this one and I want to know if any of it makes sense, and where I need to improve upon. Any feedback is appreciated. Thank you and have a wonderful day!


Pressure builds, muscles tear, bones will splinter.
Of course I am proud of the things I’ve done.
Too much weight on my soul, I will never
Ever compare to myself so I run.
New accomplishments drown in the shadows
Thrown by trophies and medals I have won.
I envy kids whose mom’s shot down the stars.
A boy’s wax wings that never see the sun
Let me breathe! I hate the word potential.
