POEM STARTER

Feeling Known

Paper butterflies

BTW I recently read an empowering book which had this title. ❤️🤩

I just wanted to be accepted, known. Even though everyone thought I was such a nerd or smarty pants or teachers pet, I just yearned to be popular! Why was it so bad to be intelligent or talented?? So I went about saying hello to everyone but all they would do was snigger behind my back and laugh at me like Cheshire cats 🐈‍⬛. But I didn’t take this to heart. Suddenly, realisation hit me. My mother was right all they were were JEALOUS. ENVIOUS. Envious of my intelligence. Envious of my talents. Envious of ME! Their mothers shouted at them to be like me. So guilt and sympathy rushed through my bones like electricity. So I thought of a way to make them like me, in classes I would help them even with their homework if they had forgotten or didn’t know how to do it. I helped them… this was empowering. So let this story make you think about the way you treat others will impact your life but forgiveness is important and aid and happiness will strengthen you to be the best!!! 😎😎😎😎🤩🤩🤩
