Not your type!!
You say "she has her own world"
But her world has no walls at all.
Or perhaps you never saw her beyond your wall.

Interesting!!
You say "she is different from others"
But she failed at every attempt to be 'others'.
Or perhaps you never saw her any different from others.

Reading.
Boring!!
You say "she doesn't speak much"
But her silence screams can tear your ear.
Or perhaps you never saw her close enough to hear.

Reading.
Intelligent!!
You say "she has a bright future"
But she see the words blurred, floating in salt water.
Or perhaps you never saw her future,
In eyes pleading to go easy on her.

You see her
Reading.
Wasted!!
You say "she could be better"
But she is awake in all winter nights.
Or perhaps you never saw her autumn,
Dreams frozen in your cold premise.
