This poem was the first ever poem that I made and at that time I was in a hard spot for a while which felt like a decade, but I eventually pulled myself through that problem. When I look back on this poem I feel relieved that I’m not back in that situation anymore and I can look at myself and see how much I have changed, in a good way. I’m not that shy girl who would always sit in the corner while everyone else is playing with their friends. I am now confident that I can look forward to the future and maybe have a better life with my family and friends. I hope that this poem may inspire others in some way.
For the last couple of months,
My world has turned upside down,
It really stunk,
Cause I didn’t want to make a sound,
I didn’t know what to do,
But really, I was stuck to the ground,
Just like glue,
I knew my heart was bound,
To grow old and not renew,
Hold tight and not lose,
My head had confidence,
But my heart felt scared,
I felt like an accident,
And my heart felt bare,
I have nightmares,
Over and over,
As soon as I dream the night flares,
In my dreams I felt lonely,
I didn’t dare to care,
I know I’m supported,
But I bottle up my feelings,
And let the ocean takes it place,
I feel cornered and people…
Steal my feelings over and over again,
This is my wave of emotions,
And caution,
As well as devotion,
And proportion,
My waves of emotion…
