Book II

Part 2 of Speechless

They didn't know what was going to happen

They didn't ask her--she wouldn't have given them an answer

She might have known, but she said nothing.

They wanted to know, they wanted to find out

She didn't want them to know, she didn't want to find out.

But she knew something was going to happen,

She could feel it inside of her,

She felt it pulsing through her veins--

The adrenaline rushed around like a twister.

She was quiet on her last day,

No one ever saw it, but she had just known it was her last day.

She stared into space because she didn't want to see anything

She tuned out the teachers because she didn't want to hear them

She was quiet, very quiet, on her last day.

She was jumpy, knowing at any second it was going to happen.

But she wasn't frightened at all because she knew it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Reviews

[Valorie J. Shearer]

Now I really am anticipating what her secret is, and that last stanza really got left me perplexed. Great job! Take care~~~

[Angelwithabeard]

being able to show others the real plot in this poem, will need more description. however, you still did a great job. keep writing.

Nice, all the contradiction, ask and tell don't tell.

[Senseless whatever]

Good continuation. Lack of specifics about the 'she' make it interesting. You can place anyone you want in that place. Maybe even know someone that would fit the behavior. Nice.
