I Try.

I Try.

A Poem by Bri
"

Yeah, well, this is my life and I love it just the way it is!

"

I try to be good.

I try to do my best.

I try to be as friendly as possible.

I try to be innocent and go to sleep with a clean

conscience.


I don't date.

I don't curse.

I don't swear.

I don't talk back.


I'm a good girl.


I don't date because I am only thirteen.

I don't curse because it is written in the bible not to.

I don't swear because god told the world not to.

I don't talk back because I was told to obey my parents.


I'm a good girl because I love god.

I'm curious about the poem because you added the tags 'sad' and 'empty.' It almost seems like the narrator is trying to prove the things they are saying to themselves.

Awesome, it takes a strong spirit to do these great things especially in this world as a teenager. I have a 20 yr. old daughter teaching the gospel in Ecuador this poem reminds me of her.
