I wrote this thinking about being As and how it affects my life in so many good ways, yes, we may be loners in life, but having to be independent all the time makes us a stronger, and more caring person than Nts in my opinion.


"The Eagles Eye", By Bradley Thompson

The strongest heart stands alone, while the weak quiver and shake among a crowd, trying to cover themselves from the cruel realities of life.

An eagle soars among the heavens in a small group, and gracefully he flies, his head high, and his wingspan stretching across the four corners of the world. Below him, the crows gather, hundreds, scrounging off of what the world has tossed at them. They scrounge for dreams that have already been taken and have been dried from overuse, while the skies stay fresh in the eagle’s eye.

Take a look at a tree in still autumn, when the leaves turn to shades of bright orange and yellow. One leaf will have to fall first, for it is destiny, the leaves fall, and are blown into the great adventure of life, one must be the first to dare out, to stand out from all the rest, and fulfill their fate.

I really like it. Are you sure it is a poem? It almost seems like you have more in there, that this could be an essay. It is good as is, since it leaves the reader wanting more.

Thank you so much for the compliment, I know my writing style tends to confuse a lot of people since i dont like to follow the rules of poetry in most cases. Thank you for the compliment, really appreciate it :)
