Liberty’s Daughter

Liberty’s Daughter

Upon the scarred surface of life; she crawls.
Her feet; broken by time, her eyes sightless,
yet still she moves, sometimes living in dreams,
hiding from Society’s preying eyes.

It's a shame how true this is. Nicely phrased, Sparx.

Indeed, a good piece of free poetry! I like it.
But it is so 'free-wrote' that it looks almost like prose.
A little more metaphors and symbolism should work. Just my opinion.

Thanks
