Original Poetry

[motsdejeva]

Staring eyes, sheepish grins--
These are the ones who watch.
Shyly smiles, always afraid--
These are the ones that dream.

Always there, never frowning--
These are the ones who succeed.
Sometimes gone, yet still here--
These are the ones who are lost.

But there are some who are free,
Not burdened by these things.
They watch, they dream,
They succeed but are always lost.

These are the ones that dare to try
To spread their wings and fly.
These are the ones who live to be free,
Not to be taken, caged by any
One thing.

~Jevana Walker
