It's All In the Mind
by Brenna Torrence '20

Michelle was nervous and Michelle was scared.
She yelled, she cried; she did all of the sort,
for all she needed was kinds of comfort.
She knew, however, that no one was there.
The fear was almost just too much to bear.
Her patience growing increasingly short,
she realized she was her only support,
and that her plans were the key to her prayer.
And so she rose up, not stopping abrupt.
At last, Michelle was finally now seen,
heard by the ones that were deaf all before.
She would jump when she came to a stump,
her actions never a time not foreseen.
Her thoughts would not hold her captive once more.
