when i was five,
i wanted to be a dragon
because they could fly.
i thought
it would be fun.
when i was ten,
i wanted to be a dragon
because they could breathe fire.
i thought
it was cool.
when i was twelve,
i wanted to be a dragon
because they had scales.
i thought
that not even words
could hurt them.
when i was thirteen,
i wanted to be a dragon
because they couldn't cry.
i thought
that i would be stronger
that way.
and now
i want to be a dragon
because they can fly.
i think
that they can go anywhere
and higher and farther
and up
and up
and up
where nothing
can reach them
at all.

Nice poetry, but I just gonna go with it and tell you that poetry is about telling facts, expressing your love and looking at them in a way that no one never did before. Well, I know dragons can fly, breathe fire, don't cry, have armor and etc. Just close your eyes and explore your heart. Ask yourself: "Is that why you love dragons? Really? That's it?! That's all you can manage?! I mean is that why they have influenced all the cultures?! and is that how you would describe your dragons to others?!"
Overall, good play with words you did, but I can sense a deep affection you have to the dragons. You have more reasons to love these lovely mythical creatures. It's not their scales, beauty, abilities and etc. which inspire you; It's something more! You just have to figure them out!
I wish you good luck with the further poems/stories.
