change


i believe in change.


i believe if i cry today, i may laugh tomorrow.


i believe a friend may not always remain a friend.


i believe we must move on.


i believe the puddles we step in will dry tomorrow.


i believe the beautiful butterfly sitting on my hibiscus will die. soon.


i believe the artist’s work will be appreciated. at least after he dies.


i believe in animals. that they should rule the earth.


i believe she will get over it. and then there will be another.


i believe in a second coming.


i believe someone is going to bomb another city soon… change its skyline.


i believe change is the only constant in our lives.




i believe … in time.


i believe paris hilton will grow old and her butt will get wrinkled.


i believe i will grow up.


i believe in change...


i believe i can do better…


....far, far better.


i believe we deserve better.


i believe we can change the world.


no, not obama. we. us.


i believe it’s time for change.


no, i know it’s time for change.


….. so what am i waiting for?

I love all the specifics you used in this poem! And I like the space between the lines; it gives each thought time to percolate. Excellent poem! I'll be back to read more of you writings!

Waiting for someone to drop by, read this, tell you they share your beliefs too, and urge you on.

So there.

I've done it.

full of hope.every bit.

i want to believe if i cry today i might laugh tomorrow too.but 'belief' is the word, it is. i can only hope for all the things, by myself plus seeing you believe. i don't know if i can believe as much as you do yet.
