The Dreamer
Location
She stands in a crowded place looking
Looking for something
For someone
Someone like her
She who sees things differently
She is alone
Alone in a world of strangers
Searching for something
For someone who dreams

When I saw the summary of your poem, I expected a poem with so few words would be awful. Instead, I was moved by the emotion behind your words. The placement of your words reads beautifully: the repetition drives your point home. I can definitely empathize with the girl who sees things differently. I hope you find someone like you: they do exist.
On the note of critique, I would add more specific imagery to keep the poem from appearing cliche or vague, and also to help the audience imagine themselves in the girl's place.
