I have high hopes in my life
I want to be an actor some day
I have the skills to do a lot of things

I have low hopes in my life
I do not think I can be a poet or actor some day
I do not think I have the skills for that

I have no hope in my life
I think I am still the indivisible girl
I have no hope in my life
I have no dreams
My dreams are dead

I really loved this! There was a great progression from high hopes to low to no, and it worked really well. I think it captures the way we all feel sometimes about our aspirations. Great job!
