This is an excerpt from Sonnet 18 written by Shakespeare. If you know anything about Shakespeare's sonnets, you know that they always have a regular meter, which means that all of them are written in iambic pentameter. This means that the first syllable is unstressed, and it is followed by a stressed syllable.
So, when applied to this poem, just split the words into syllables - the first one will be unstressed (so, as, can, or, can), and the second one will be stressed (long, men, breathe, eyes, see).
(I took the penultimate line as an example)

igor_vitrenko [27]

During this year, one of my main goals was to change computers, since mine was showing malfunctions, besides being very old. However, my countries could not afford to pay for it, which means that this was a goal that I should be able to achieve alone. To achieve this, I started a search for part-time jobs, which would be difficult due to the moment we live in, but I will travel until I get a job as a website editor. I calculated how much I would earn for this job and set a deadline by which I would be able to buy the computer, if I added my salary money. I bought the computer in 3 months and my parents helped me to achieve my goal, although they did not help me with money, they helped me with the guidelines that I needed to write.

I am currently working on another goal. I would like to buy an apartment. I know this is going to be a long way, but I am looking forward to seeing how I will walk on it.
