This was fairly good for a first poem. My only complaint is that the whole poem was powerful, but the last few lines were not. The last few lines should be the best lines out of poem, something that sticks with you. I didn't feel that. If you added a few emotive lines onto the end poem, the ending would be as powerful as the rest of the poem. Good job, and keep writing!

you're flipping awesome!
that's what i think!
high five times 10!
seriously your ridiculously brave and strong
don't forget that
