My cringe Wattpad poem from 5 years ago.

[A Former User]

Im putting this in “vent” because Im sharing stuff I wouldnt usually share about myself

Apparently I made a wattpad account back in 2019 (I swear it was 2020, that really throws off my mental timeline). Ill share the least cringe poem I have. I remember being really proud of this one. It’s sad because on the actual description, I said “I did not feel these feelings, but I just literally felt inspired.” But I actually remember making this poem while crying. I gaslighted myself a lot back then. I guess it just goes to show how much I’ve grown in 5 years lol

I’m barely breathin’
I’m here
Somewhat
Only for the dark side
I’m seein’ the lonely
Makes me wanna cry.

Everything seems to be reverse
Just like I’ve always said
This is just like a curse,
Things are gettin’ worse.

Help me stay alive
As I watch others thrive.
Here
While I continue to try
I strive
But yet I haven’t arrived.

Here I am
On the dark side
Just waiting to hide.
Here I am
Just waiting to die
Waiting for a lie.

Here I stand
Just trying to thrive.
Like others
Easy it comes
But yet they see
I’m not like the other ones.

Help
I am a person
Help me to be a better version,
Better version of me.

I know
I see
'Cause life’s so hard
It’s always this part.
Living on the end
Just waiting for things that are pretend.

I’m barely breathin’
My heart’s barely beatin’
My tears still streamin’
While I cry
And be screamin’
I’m barely breathin’.

Barely holding on
You know I’m not strong
I’m not sure if I can go this long.

Now, help me now
Show me how.
Livin’ is hard
But I know I got to start
I’ve been playin’ this part
I know it’s it my heart.

I’m here breathin’
Nothing holding me back
I better make a move
Or everything turns black.

There’s a second part to this. I made it because I didnt want to leave things off on an “emo” note. Now, this is why I always say people need to stop overusing “my life sucks.” So many kids said that their life is bad, so I knew that me expressing that same emotion would just be overlooked because everyone says the same thing about their life. I knew no one would understand my situation and the actual deepness and seriousness of it. So I decided to just not talk about/express it. Being positive was the only way to really…like…get through it all I guess lol. I dont regret it honestly. I think that it made me who I am, so I certainly cant complain.

I’m standin’
Things are better now
I sit
Waiting for someone,
Somehow.

I’ve been threw this race
This trial
This place.
Just hoping
To become alive…
But watch me,
Watch me strive

I’m that one,
Look at who
Who I’ve become
I’m better now

I’m on my own
Let me now
I’m safe and sound
I’m better now

I can stand
Don’t be worrying about
Who I am
'Cause I know I can

I tell the world
I don’t know if I should.
I tell myself
I knew that I could

@Duchess THE poem has good rhymthes but… yeah, you really changed alot over those past 5 years, trust me, i was also cringe back then, i mean… everybody was back then I think-

edit: Also, the thing you said after the 1st part is supposed to be a small “lesson” to remind you of something right?

Update: My coughing didnt got better, yeah i have to drink cola and it SOMEHOW helps me to not cough that much-

[A Former User]

@Wubbrle-the-Wubble Maybe it’s the carbonation.

[A Former User]

Or the sugar, I dont know.

[Wubbrle the [REDACTED]]

i think cuz of the Carbonation, but yeah- cola helps.

@Wubbrle-the-Wubble Well that’s good lol

@Duchess 2019-2021 should be an era we all forget existed.

All seriousness tho, the poem is actually really good. I absolutely love the second part the most.
