I hope you are enjoying my poetry. This poem was also written in Grade 9.

It’s a reflection on society and the world we live in. Pretty deep stuff…

In this thing called life, it is important to know that we are not the only ones who are confused.

Here I Stand

I am confused.
I don't know where to go.
Or when.
I don't know why, 
The earth is round,
Why we hurt and suffer,
Why we laugh,
Why we cry,
Why we are so selfish,
And unkind.
I wonder how cruel man could be,
Destroying all that is good for him. 
Feeling no compassion.
There's a lot more that,
I don't know,
But,
I do know that,
I am not the only one.
