She Survived

Buy - Freedom

She Survived
by Katherine West

She stood silently, watching the birds fly
Gliding upon gossamer wings of joy
There is no wild, unbridled fury here
A freedom that's foreign to some creatures

Caged by fear, shackled and shamed- powerless
An untamed spirit floating on the wind
A freedom that's never to be tasted
Those fearful, trapped souls yearning to soar free

To fly high, leaving every care behind
No more silent agony- No more pain
Living within yesterday's shattered dreams
And the realization- I have survived
