She stands on her own feet <br />but just barely. <br />She stands by herself <br />But not willingly <br />She stands in the crowd <br />but not to fit in <br />She stands by the boy <br />but not longingly <br />She stands on top of the world <br />but not for long. <br />She stands for what she believes in <br />but does she want to? <br />Does she stand for her <br />or because it is what she is told to do?<br /><br />Ariel Metcalf<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/she-stands/
