At one time I was blowing smoke
And as I was exhaling I began to choke
Soon I thought this was no dream
My life would end it would seem
For hard as I tried I could not catch my breath
Feeling the cold and dreary grip of death

Then to my wonder I did behold
My friend a glass of water he did hold
As he handed it to me he said
I think you had better stop before you're dead

Then I awoke in a cold shiver
My heart throbbing a quiver
Now I knew what must be done
Time for me to stop having "fun"
This is why I no longer party
Smoke,snort,or drink Bacardi

The rhymes seemed empty , kinda like nonsense rhymes with out flow and  they were really common too. You might want to try for wider use of language

rhea I appreciate your comment
though the thing about common rhymes is just a little hypocritical i.e. show,go me,be become,dumb hirt,dirt from your poem: stolen identity
btw this is the fifth piece I have ever written

So? And read what I post in CA, I post my personal poems here and some of the rhymes aren't as great as i would like. IN CA the rhymes are better. Also that poem was from a while ago.

fun"

Fun is really cliche though and I don't think thats the best you can think of.  
The rhymes are just so matter fact, but that is my oppinion.
