Description
I Smile
I wave
To friends in the hall
I laugh
I joke
I watch people talk
I read
I draw
I go for a walk
I watch
I listen
To what most people don't
I remember
A story
Of the girl beside me
I know her
I heard her tale
Of a time before
Her pain
Her sorrows
Her story she tells
She rambles
She speaks
A story to remember for another time
A bell rings
A door opens
The room emptied out
I give a shrug
I pack up to leave
I look around to see if anyone is there
I board a yellow bus
Without a mere goodbye
I look to the ground with a shallow sigh
I sit near a friend
I lean in the seat
I wonder if anyone else even sees me
The ground
Rushes by
Landmarks become blurred
Even Friends
Don't see you
Unless you tell them you're there

I act happy
I act untouched
I act unbothered
I act a friend
I act all day
I act for others
I act for my sanity
I act for me
