Poem Title:
Poem
All she really wanted to do was to live her life the way she wanted to live, not the way the protectors thought she should. She wanted to be set free from the bonds that bound her to the ground. Freedom is what she wanted to soar like an eagle, to explore the world outside of her unwanted secure safe haven. Explore, learn, experience life, her life on her terms. Explore the unknown world near and far outside of the only world she's known. She needs to crush the bonds that bind her and prove to all she is capable of living a healthy and happy life. Just to let her breathe and experience life. She's been told what, where, how, and who to associate with since the beginning of time, she's ready to destory the bubble that the protectors have formed around her over the years for her own protection they say... She just wants to experience the outside world herself. To see the world as it is and to meet people from all walks of life. She must have a first hand experience not just through books, because you can only learn so much from books, but to be able to experience it first hand and to feel that awe of excitement while she experiences the wonders of the world as others have done Her overbearing protectors ask, ' Where will go? Where will you stay? What will you eat? For you have no money, so they ask How will you achieve your travels when you have nothing?' Thinking to herself never a spoken idea or thought to her protectors for they shoot her down with arrows every time, so why say a word at all? When she can remain happy in her thoughts by remaining silent as a lamb. The protectors tell her to get her head out of the clouds, stop that daydreaming, that's nonsense, you're being foolish with these thoughts and ideas. For it will only bring you sorrow and grief to you. They act as though she's a helpless lamb who cannot defend for herself without them, when in all actual reality they're suffocating her. The protectors tell her it's a waste of time that it's a cold, cruel world out there that's why she must remain where she is and to do as she is told to remain safe and secure. For they tell her if she leaves she will lose everything that the protectors have worked so hard to give her a life, a secure life. If she leaves the protectors she will have nothing, she will leave with nothing, and when she fails she will come back with nothing, but she's willing to take that chance in order for her to live her life to the fullest potential. The life that she was meant to have, a life of a newfound freedom. Adventures lie ahead in her new way of life that she has chosen for herself and therefore to be an adventurous young woman she will learn and experience all the excitement that awaits her in the unknown outside world.
