Summer Arthur Poet Free verse

Something To Believe In

We all need something to believe in,

Whether it's the stars like bright

Diamonds in an onyx sky

Or pure, forever-mine love.

We all need something to believe in,

One wish resounding in our hearts,

One tear filled with a joy that will

Never ever fade.

We all need something to believe in,

So why am I finding it so difficult to

Hold onto my dreams of a long ago

Place where hurt will never touch?

These memories cut into me,

I wonder where on Earth we went

Wrong, then remember how it all

Just fell apart.

We all need something to believe in,

No matter what we've been through,

I believe someday I'll get over you

Completely and laugh at my stupidity...
