Elizabeth Fowler Poems

As they walk along the shore,
They begin to see,
To see the footprints,
The footprints left behind,
...

If you could only see,
See that it was you,
You who set me free,
Free from everything,
...

If you only knew,
How much I’m scared,
Scared to let you in,
I’m scared because,
...

Looking out the window of my room,
I slowly let myself slip into the abyss,
Into a world where I cannot be hurt,
A world that only I myself can go,
...

I sometimes wish that you would see,
That all I want is to be free,
To be free from everything,
The school,
...
