POEM STARTER

Write a poem exploring mistakes and redemption.

Humans are fallible, and often the best stories come from our errors. What might you discuss in this poem?

What Did I Do…?

What did I do wrong?

I’m sorry. I know I did… something.

Isn’t this just me though?

I don’t understand,

It doesn’t make sense.

I’m acting strange, I assume.

But why?

And why are you acting even stranger?


Why are you all treating me like I’m insane,

Like I can’t be trusted,

Like I’m falling apart at the seams and you can just stuff me full of cotton to fix me,

But only one person has actually asked if I’m okay?


I know I’m the one being weird,

But honestly, I expected better from you.
