This is a sample of her (Meghan's) writing. She wrote this when she was not yet a teen ager.


Little Girl



I saw the eyes of an old woman

In the young face of a child.

It was experienced and knew much

Though tender, pained and mild.



I saw the posture of a weakened woman

In a body that had known a sad childhood.

She carried herself without meaning

Following orders without thinking if she should.



I saw the strength of a warrior

In a heart that knew only to survive.

It brought itself to face each day

And yet it was barely alive.



I saw the spirit of an aged soldier

Inside the lost soul of a mere baby.

It had fought many battles

And now it was crying "save me".



I saw a little girl

Who had grown up far too fast.

She had already lived her life

Though she barely had a past



I saw all this,

And it broke my heart to see.

And then I looked a little closer

And saw the little girl was me.
