The Unsung Spirit
September 15, 2016
Selfless, alone, and detached from all man
Sister to two, but answerer to few
Creation of Air—known, but never seen
Friend to no one who seeks to deceive
Who longs to fly, to sing, to simply be
Who cares for all those that are lost and alone
Who fears the light and the dark, and being trapped on her own
Who longs to be cared for as she does for the reject
Surviving in nothing, but somehow, in everything
Who dreams of being free, but never stops wishing for an anchor that she will never see
The Unsung Spirit

Wow! I loved it. One of the best biopoems I've ever read ;) Good job!
There's an Unsung Spirit in all of us, but they're all a little different. This one is mine.
