BELIEVE


One day the world stopped,

Without a single warning.

It will end soon I hoped,

But then, “everything will be fine soon” led the way to simply smiling.


The world felt colourless,

But people seemed blue.

Was life really taking a turn for the best,

Or were we just walking the path without a clue?


I looked around and the world was changing,

But thankfully between my hope and I, nothing had changed.

When there was not a sound I started talking,

But when there was one, I just sat back and enjoyed.


I remember everything,

From the smell of theatre popcorn to embarrassing myself in the mall.

Now I sit here waiting to embarrass myself yet again,

But there’s no one around to appall.


Stuck in the same cycle everyday,

Just sitting on the bed seems like a disease.

Sick and tired of this very day,

Next please!

I’m starting to learn that life can still be Dynamite,

Not the same tired song on repeat.

Still thinking if I should skip today,

Or just dance to the beat.

Our lives will still go on and so will we,

All we have to do is BELIEVE....
