POEM STARTER

To my past self

Write a poem addressed to your past self

Past Self, Don’t Worry

Past self,

I know life was hard


In kindergarten you where a clueless child

That had understanding and yet you didnt


In first grade you started figuring stuff out

Starting to find out that your alone but you still fight to have friends

You always liked ti read then cause it was an escape from the outside world


In second grade a new girl comes

I was always nice to her but she was rude to me

Life forward gets harder

And it won’t stop


In third grade you meet your best friend

A friend that is always there

But then in the middle of the year

COVID hits and you will become alone

Learning the flute and doing online lessons

But that is five years ago now

Who new time flies so fast


In fourth grade you wear masks all year

To not get sick

You start to feel more alone than ever

Cause your friend you made in third grade is being distance from you

But yoi never gave up on being friends with them

That is your best decaion


In fits grade your class is even smaller

You play the flute at mass and in programs

And learn the piano

You feel you don’t have friends

You wanted to go to the public school


Little did you know that sixth grade is worse

That it’s a class of seven

They tried to make everyone friends but you felt left out

You felt you don’t fit in

You felt know one understands you

You felt like that everyone tried to steal and or copy your answers

You felt like a side character back then


But things get better in seventh grade

You make a group of friends

Your still clueless

But you felt like your im the real world with knownone to protect you

Seventh grade was hard with volleyball

Rude people

And just trying to fit in


Eighth Grade got better and worse

You got closer to your friends

But yet you felt like you didn’t have any

You were pressured

You wanted to cry

Your mental health decreased a lot

But then you did something

That now makes your friend group fragile

You become yourself

You understand yourself

But yet your still afraid


All these grades where hard

Middle school sucked

But yet it made you who you are

You understand people

You don’t know what is ahead of you

But your prepared for what is to come

Your ready to fight your battles

Your ready to win the war

Your ready to not be a side character

Your ready to be you


You are ready for the years to come

You are ready for everything

That comes your way


Don’t fret if it goes bad

That is life

And life is hard

But just remember the good times

With those your close with

And help them

And they will help you
