Glass

I stare out the glass
everything out there is so free
trees, animals, plants, birds
I wish I was a bird
so free and able to do anything.
The glass traps me 
waiting for my next move
I spend all day looking out the glass
waiting for something to happen
wishing I were out there
free like a bird 
Everywhere around me is glass
all i can do is look out it
and wait and wait
all I have left to do is hope
Hope this will end
The glass traps me

  • Today's Fears

    Teens are afraid
    We worry
    Do I look okay?
    What do they think of me?
    We obsess over how we look
    We worry that we're not thin enough
    We think we need to be skinny and perfect to fit into todays society 
  • In the distance

    In the distance
    Lies a magical fantasy land 
    Where objects talk 
    And dragons fly
    Where dreams come true
    The clouds are cotton candy
    The trees are made of chocolate 
    It's an escape from reality
  • As the Sun Begins to Rise

    As the sun begins to rise
    The birds stretch their wings and wake everyone up with their singing
    The foxes and wolves yawn and stretch
    Ready to look for their next meal 
    As the sun climbs the sky
