More Poetry

hello, this is bridgette. i saw my dads post on some of my poetry and wanted to thank you for your support! i also wanted to put a couple other poems on here.

they make you want to sing

they make your want to jump

to reache for them

they sparlke like a million diamonds

flashing and blinking

as if beckoning you to sair

calling you sayin,

"its more fun up here

in the black of the night"

too many to count

more than you can seethe more you stare,

the more fantastic they become

so alike but so unique

twinkling, sparkling

beautiful

why do people care so much

what other people think?

we should all just be ourselves

and disregard the thoughts of others

if we acted just like us

there would be no back-stabbing

or two faced people who dont know

how they are acting

if we lived like ourselves

we'd be better friends

and then we wouldnt care so much

what all the world is thnking.

why do people just throw their lives away?

why do people say they just dont care?

cant they see the endless problems

awaiting them?

why do poeple give up their dreams

if its a dream they really want?

why do people make goals if

they've convinced themnselves they arent

going to try to achieve them?

why cant the recognize the big hole

they are digging for themselves?

why throw your life away?

what happens to a dream forgotten?

does it float away

like a ballon?

or hide like a caterpillar

in its cocoon?

does it get stored for later?

or dissapear

like sugar in water?

it probably sits and waits

like a patient someone

or is it simply over and gone?

thanks so much for everything! you guys are great(:
