I Don’t Believe

WINNING POEM

I don’t believe in Trust,
I don’t believe in Love,
I don’t believe in Possible,
I don’t believe in Promises,
I don’t believe in Magic,
Or Wishes.
So What’s worth believing in?

I don’t believe in friendship,
I don’t believe in words of comfort.
So what’s worth believing in?

Fairy tales and gossip,
Laughter and happiness,
I don’t believe in being free!

So WHAT is worth believing in?
I wonder and wonder,
From day after day I look top and under,
Is it something big or small,
I can’t find anything quite so tall,

Then I look side to side,
And there my answer is,
My Family, that’s worth believing in!
