I am... (Free verse Poem)
I am an outgoing self-conscious teenage girl
I wonder if I'm good enough
I hear my mind telling me things that aren't true
I see people talk badly about others
I want everyone to stop spreading rumors
I pretend that I'm confident about myself
I feel like people think I ask for attention
I touch my face while I wipe away my tears
I worry that people will never stop judging
I cry when people tell me what they really think
I am an outgoing self-conscious teenage girl
I understand that nobody's perfect
I say things that I don't mean
I dream that I will grow up to not worry about what people think
I try to smile through the hard times
I hope that people don't notice how unhappy I am
I am an outgoing self-conscious teenage girl

My teacher inspired me to write this because she felt the same way in middle school and I want to do express how I felt.
I hope that people can read this and relate, but know that it all gets better eventually.
