Youths speak up

Speaking up through art
by Megan Jones
My deep eyes see lots
They see pain separation and joy
They see poetry everywhere
They see my north star
Vulnerability in some
Who strike us as strong
The loudest strong
Often the most vulnerable
The most inclined to laugh
Sometimes does it
To hide the tears
Just beneath the surface
And those who seem so shy
Can be strong
When they have to be
But are often pushed
To be strong for everyone
Except themselves
And don’t think that because
I look lost in another world
That I am not reading deeper
Than you would ever imagine
