I'm Proud of You- Poem To My Childhood Self
November 23, 2021
You thought
You were
doing
so good...
You did the best
you
could.
..
Might not
Mean much
But..
I’m
Proud of
you..
I hope
you know
It’s
true..
....
You are
Just a
Little kid..
Why
Are you
Standing there,
Attempting to be
Hid?..
Where
Did I
Go wrong
With
You?
...?
I’m sorry-
You couldn’t have
Predicted the
mess that
would
ensue..

I don't have much for this one, I'll be honest. But it's very lovely, and even the detached feel you get from how you broke everything up really hits. <333
Just a little poem to my childhood self. I've just been trying to get back into the swing of writing since I've been having writer's block lately. Feels like I've got nothing to write about- although that's far from the truth.
