It's hard for me to not do good at something. I used to be a gymnast, but I quit. It's been really hard for me, cause i used to be really strong and have abs. I'm still strong, but I just feel like I need to get off my butt and do something, but I'm lazy. And I'm worried that as I get older I will become bigger and bigger.
Metaphors and similes are used to add depth and meaning to the poem, so it looks normal on the surface but when you re-read it you uncover a deeper meaning :)
