Diamonds And Velvet

Lying on my back,
Staring at the velvet, ebony sky
I feel me heart pounding against my rib cage
On the dock that I lay, so still, so quiet
The water gently kisses the dock, making it wet
Over the lake far in the distance loud music plays
The neighbors are having a party again
Celebrating who knows what,
For who knows what reason
The stars twinkle against the velvet sky
Shimmering like diamonds
The moons shines so bright
It seems to turn the black of night
Into the light of day
May my neighbors be safe and may I be safe
From the dangers of being a teenager growing up
In this time
Why can’t it be perfect,
With no troubles or dangers?
No, if life on Earth was perfect,
What would Heaven be?
So I except the worries, troubles
And dangers
And look forward to my after life
But I will not put myself in an
Early grave
But doing the things
That are supposed to make you
Popular
Everyone’s time comes
But until then
I’ll continue to live
And stare at the diamonds
In the velvet sky
