Make it Write My World by Michael Shepard, 14   As I sit in captivity, I stare at the world outside. I wish for freedom constantly. I want a new beginning To come to an old life. I wish for time to tell eager ears Things I know and have learned. I wish for eager children To want to hear my stories. "You are young," they say. Young people learn the quickest. It is time to start sharing with the world Everything I know.
