I wait in the rain,
Waiting for the storm to go away
So that when the clouds fly away
Ill take my first steps towards a dream that is a thousand of miles away from me,
But the rain keeps getting colder and sharper
And the water is trapping me in.
Growing, as the water is up to my neck
When I try to look behind me, everybody is in the shallow end
And Im, in the deep end.
When I told myself that nobody was going to save me
That even God and his mighty angels couldnt save me
I was wrong.
I was too proud to show that I really needed help
That I cant do this all on my own,
I now know
I am no gifted child,
I will take my friends and we will fight against the storms that have come to stop us.
I will tell my guardians, of the dream that is at the ends of the Earth
And make them listen to the story of my ending
But if they fathom at my ridiculous hope of thought,
I will not bother to look back
And soon, maybe they would bind to my needs.
But in the end,
This is my finale
I will truly be,
Emboldened

I did pretty well, since it only took me about two weeks to write this, and it was hard though
Maybe come back later and I'll show my new poem I've been working on (I've been working on it for like a month and it's looking great!)

Maybe you should change "waiting" to "wait;" there's no reason to use a gerund here. Also, you use the word "away" three times in these four lines. This has the potential to bore the reader; you're not varying your language, and essentially each line is the same idea being expressed in a similar way. You should either introduce different ideas in new lines, or present established ideas in different ways.
And Im, in the deep end. I like this metaphor, but I think it could be done in a more interesting way. For example, "I try to look behind me" is a pretty plain phrase. You could try "I crane my neck to catch a glimpse," or something like that.
That even God and his mighty angels couldnt save me
This is a nice concept, but again, the repetitive sentence structure threatens to dull the effect of the words. Maybe you should add a dash to the end of the first line and change the ending of the second line to something like "That even God and his angels would stand by and watch..." (I took out "mighty" because I don't think it's necessary, but that's probably just me.
Great line, but you don't need the comma. If you want to create a pause, you can break it up into two lines.

Embolden.
This is a nice ending, but "embolden" should be "emboldened." The first is a verb, the second is an adjective.
Again, I think this poem shows a lot of potential. I hope I could help.
But than I feel glad, now that I realize what needs to be corrected.
Thank you
