The graveyard of teenage dreams <br />is where Greg’s ambitions lie. <br />He wanted to play music <br />and just have a good time. <br />But society prostrated him <br />and forced him to fall in line. <br />He ponders what could have been; <br />But his time has passed him by. <br /> <br />The graveyard of teenage dreams <br />is where Kim’s ambitions lie <br />She wanted to be a star, <br />go on stage, and shine. <br />But everyone around her <br />told her otherwise. <br />She ponders what could have been; <br />But time has passed her by. <br /> <br />You only live once my friend. <br />Make the best out of it; <br />Or live in the dark world of regrets. <br /> <br />(March 23,2007)<br /><br />Michael Fischer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-graveyard-of-teenage-dreams/
