POEM STARTER

Compose a poem that reads like a monologue.

A monologue is a speech given by one character only, usually to express their thoughts out loud.

Weak

I’m such a baby

Why can’t I take that?

Why does it hurt so bad?


It’s just playing around

He wasn’t trying to hurt me on purpose

Why am I so weak?


He was just playing

By bending my wrist

Why does it hurt?


And when I tell him to stop

He doesn’t

It’s still playing


Until I’m crying

from the pain

That’s when he stops


And that’s when it makes me feel like shit

For upsetting him

And stopping him from playing around


My mom always chimes in

I don’t hear what she’s saying though

But I know it’s something about me being weak


(This is almost exactly what I monologued after what happened. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened. It happens a lot actually)
