Her Silence
the lonely girl in the middle of a crowded world
𝕊tanding there, the lonely girl cries unnoticed
𝕀n a crowd of thousands, still she feels ... alone
𝕃ost to the world, abandoned and unloved
𝔼ven to herself, in those times of quiet stillness and dark
ℕot willing to disturb the world, yet wishing to be heard
ℂrying out with silent voice, no one hears her, no one sees her
𝔼xcluded in the crowded world, she is alone, remaining … silenced

When the Shelter Closes
Across the street from my house, a man slept under a tree, his dog by his side. My first, naive thought: he must be traveling through. But he kept coming back, often sleeping there during the day. Then it hit me—that person might not have a home.

This reminded me of the song Nobody's Home by Avril Lavigne. Your poem was so poignant, emotional and relatable. I loved it!
great job on capturing the emotions and that feeling of being invisible. well done!
