The Quiet Girl in the Corner

Shuffling feet

walk down the street,

but no one sees her

the quiet girl in the corner

they look away

they frown with distaste

no one wants to see her

the quiet girl in the corner

She hides under a hood

she says not a word

no one tries to see her

the quiet girl in the corner

oblivious to her silent plea

they miss the pain that her eyes scream

no one has time to see her

the quiet girl in the corner

shuffling feet 

still walk down the street

but shes no longer there

the quiet girl in the corner

The loneliness is felt as you read down but I believe in order to overcome such an ordeal, we have to move on and change; love ourselves before caring about what anyone else thinks.

Great piece.

It hard to be alone and feel distance from all things. This poem create a sadness and loneliness. The description took me to a lonely soul which are many needing a smile and a friend. Thank you for a excellent poem.
