Wow! That is a really good poem. I believe that you have great rhyming sense and that you have a really good way with words. I am only 15 myself, but I think it was awesome. :)

Keep up your awesome writing skills - you have a lot of talent.I am sure that you can achieve your goal of becoming a poet/author.

My only advice is to keep writing, keep practicing, maybe try different types of writing?
Like, maybe try doing rhyming poems one day, and the next try free form or another one that you haven't done before. Then, you can see what you enjoyed doing the most and you can work on your weaknesses and preform to your strengths.

Keep on writing, and I hope you have a wonderful day. :)
