Make it Write

My World
by Michael Shepard, 14

 

As I sit in captivity,

I stare at the world outside.

I wish for freedom constantly.

I want a new beginning

To come to an old life.

I wish for time to tell eager ears

Things I know and have learned.

I wish for eager children

To want to hear my stories.

"You are young," they say.

Young people learn the quickest.

It is time to start sharing with the world

Everything I know.
