Confession.
Write a poem, with a set structure, which centres around the theme of confession.
Help…
I have a confession
I hate asking for help
I hate physical touch
I feel needy
I feel annoying sometimes
I feel like a let down
I feel like I don’t have a true group of friends
I feel like I am a side character
I feel like people don’t notice me
I feel alone sometimes
I feel like I can’t express my self
I cry when their is no one around
I like to be dependent
I sometimes feel like I want validation
Sometimes I want a hug
But afraid of the feeling of them
Sometimes I feel like know one wants to talk
Sometimes I feel left out
Sometimes I feel frozen in time
Sometimes I feel like I am a punching bag
Sometimes I feel I am only there for people to complain to
Sometimes I wish I could just be me
Sometimes I feel as I am a burden know one wants to see
I am an extrovert
But yet I like to be quiet
I don’t like to express my opinions
I put everything behind my smile
I pretend im fine
When I don’t feel fine
I say sorry a lot
Even when I didn’t do anything
I feel like it’s my fault
I feel like an asshole for not
Being able to comfort people
I don’t know how to do it
I can say words
But I can never get it right
I hide everything
I lie about my feelings
I think thoughts
But I never do anything
I hide my pain
Cause I’m afraid to express it
Or that others have worse that me
Or that they don’t want to hear it
Why do I push all my emotions
Into a little tiny vial
In the back of my mind
But yet
I am happy to
I like to smile
I like to have joy and love
So is there a name for this
I hate asking help
But I need it
