Poetry: Reading

by Dondria Cooper

Created on: April 29, 2009

I read to make me happy

And sometimes the book is really sappy

Although the pages seem long

It is great to get along

With the characters in the book

Making me take a look

At my own lifestyle

Wondering if I am still alive

After reading a drama, romance novel

That gets my emotions all bothered

But that does not stop me from reading

Just inspires me to dream

Dreaming of one day being successful

Living the life rich and full

Working my way up the chain

I know its takes a little pain

To play the game of life

Instead of turning to the knife

Killing the pain I feel inside

So I go back to reading

And take it for a ride
