This poem is pretty good. When reading this i was just imaging Oprah saying this out loud to her audience. Really love how this was kind of short and sweet, reminds me of like a pop song lyrics.


The last two lines remind me a bit of Labrinth's song Jealous. Really liked your poem's structure. 

Thanks everyone for the critique!  That's exactly the mood I was going for - surface-level nice and easy :)

This is a pretty nice read. As the other commenters have said, the repetition and simple language make the piece sound like a pop song. This is in no way a criticism; it makes the piece fun to read in your head and truly makes the poem lyrical. It becomes really effective when the last stanza gets deeper than the others while still keeping some of the repetition, making the piece sound as bittersweet as it should be. Good job.

And Now, We Go Live
