Untitled

April Ryder, Age 16
Georgia


My soul, raging, waging, waring
against the ocean floor
crashing on the ocean shore
fighting to get to the top
but breaking...
loving tender hearts and living a purist life
but faking...
What a wonder it would be to make it...
to be free
free of facination, of expiration
of these dreams that live and die in vain
to be an inspiration...
like you...
for who I am
to be true to fight off the waves as a white horse
no longer entangled in the ocean's force
but free to love, free to live
Oh the price I would give
