Fade Away

Have you seen her lately?

The small framed girl

With the thick rimmed glasses

Who??

You know her

I know you do

She bites her nails

Never says a word

Wears sleeves in summer?

You think you do?

Have you seen her lately?

I can't find her and I'm worried

I asked her if she needed help

Why?

Because I care

I know you've noticed

Everyone has

She doesn't speak

But her silence screams

I know you know her

We all used to play when we were young

Yeah I know she drifted

But maybe that was our fault?

Have you seen her lately?

Her empty chair in class

It makes me feel uneasy

You couldn't be bothered to care?

I think she hurts herself

And yeah I kinda care

Have you seen her lately?

It's been awhile since I've seen her there...

some people we just don't take the time to notice...if they don't stand out, if they are not outspoken, beautiful, sharp tongued, sharp witted---of course many are that way but we never notice them enough to find out.

people can just fade into the woodwork...and we walk through the house and don't even see they are there.

haunting piece.

Sometimes sadly it takes them disappearing for us to realize they were even there, people get so caught up in their daily routines they forget to see their surroundings, thank you for the review jacob :
