The Girl in the Corner

The Girl in the Corner

A Poem by ~A.J.P.~

She sits there, folded into herself,
Guarded by shadows, shielded from eyes.
Her soul soars over the masses.
Flies to the heights of emancipation.
Her body sits there, chin to knees,
Legs enfolded in arms.
Eyes open unseeing.
Heart flying o'er fields and oceans,
Feeling the pain of the world.
Then returns to roost.
The tears come to the unseeing eyes,
Of the girl in the corner who cries.
