PLEASE HELP ME!!!

I hope this is ok:

They call me smart

But would they really think that

If I opened up my heart

They can tell me that I'm pretty

I'll listen when they call me tough

But honestly I dont know

If I'll ever be enough

I feel just like the ocean

Many secrets deep inside

They never know everything about me

But still I will be kind

I want things to slow down to a stop

But still the river flows

Will I ever find who I am?

Only the future knows

(remember that you're beautiful no matter what. I'm here if you ever need to talk)

i think one answer could be this poet uses no rhyme.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
