Book I

A Chapter by Speechless Shadow
"

It's more of a really short part, but I like naming them books instead because they wouldn't all be part of the same chapter because it doesn't seem right.

"
It was as if no one saw her, as if no one cared.
She didn't know they cared a lot more than she thought.

They didn't know what to do; they didn't know what to say
They never knew what she wanted--she kept all that to herself--
She kept everything to herself
She hardly ever spoke a word to anyone.

She kept so quiet that people wouldn't know she was there
She neither had any friends nor did she have enemies
No one liked her, no one hated her
She knew that.

She kept silent, moving through the hallways like a ghost
She had average grades so no one would notice--
They wondered if she had a secret, but she didn't say.

She was afraid that if she said something
That it would be too much information
So she kept quiet.

I really felt the solitude, and sadness; especially in the last stanza. Great job, once again! Take care~~~

Thank you. I thought about the short story thing, but I like to write poetry more, so that is what I did.

Nice, I like the concept. I think it would be easy to transform this into a short story.

I really like this poem. It gives me a new perspective on people, especially in the last stanza.
