Undiscovered Genius

I write a bunch, and some of it I kinda' sorta' like. I especially write poetry. I have submitted to my school's literary arts magazine two years in a row, and have been turned down both times! I am starting to lose hope! I know that part of being a writer is the frustration and hardship of sending in to be published and not being published, but should I have to go through it now? I am thinking of not submitting this year. I don't know if I should! If anyone out there has any suggestions for me, I would love to hear them!
