Confusion

A poem about not understanding the world.

Confusion

Nothing written in stone,

Morals made to be broken

Promises to be taken back

Friends to backstab

Hearts to break

The world an unreliable place

I stand in the midst

A young woman, finding my way

Fragile and forgotten in the rush

I’m drowning in confusion.

Won’t somebody come and save me?

Very good job on the poem!

The more you look for someone outside of yourself to save you, the more disappointed you will be. Look to you spiritual heart, and what you want out of life, and be true to it - be flexible, but be true. That's my wise old woman word of the day, formed from hard experience.

Confusion isn't just for the young. Confusion is there for everyone at every stage of life. It is a part of being human. We never know what is going to happen next so enjoy the good times and let go of the ones that aren't. If there was no trouble in our lives and there was no sadness, no pain then would be truly understand love and happiness as we do know? I don't think we would. This poem has great flow and your thoughts are clearly penned and put onto the paper.

i like the short powerful lines used in this poem, this style of poetry is really fun to read and write!

The first 5 lines were really..impacting. Great poem.
