Poems

I’m Sorry

I’m sorry that I broke my leg

I’m sorry that I left

I’m sorry that I’m still here

I’m sorry that you’re there

In the future you will be better

Better than I’ll ever be

I know that you’re a go getter

That’s why I think you will be the greatest

What I really wanna say is

Good luck

Good luck on your journey

Good luck on getting your life together

Because with this broken leg

I’m not going anywhere

My Biggest Problem

What else could this mean?

Sitting in a classroom, thoughts inside my head

I cannot do it anymore

I have to let these thoughts free

I would have never thought that I would experience this,

Thoughts within thoughts

Anyone would think I may have a lot on my mind

But I really don’t

Thoughts I cannot control

That’s one of my biggest problems in my life

Putting my thoughts into words

At this point, all of my thoughts

Are all scribbles

“Can you read out what you wrote, Justyn?”

I finally go back into the real world

I look down at my paper

And I haven’t written a single word

Reflection

I’m really bad at writing poems, haha. Before I thought all poems needed to rhyme, but professor sidibe made it clear to the class that every poem does not need to rhyme. She also encouraged us to be ourselves and write about that something you always think about. So in order for me to write these poems, I decided to write about my weaknesses as a person.

With the poem I’m sorry, I decided to make it repetitive because I want to emphasize that phrase. I’m a very forgiving person, even if everything is against me, I will still forgive people just to spread positive energy, it is just how the type of person I am.
