    Poem Commentary

    hey everyone this is Crystal.C #31
    im just a 15 yr. old scholar-athlete
    I love to play basketball and i love poetry and music... this particular poem is about my life story... sometimes us "kids" get lost in who we are and our purpose... sometimes we just need someone to come along and listen to us... instead of telling us what to do all of the time.. sometimes we feel like giving up and sometimes we stop trying to be heard and we slowly fade to the background... our words are not heard and we cant be seen... "silent ghosts".. thank you for reading this poem... and have A Blessed Day

    Maybe

    When I talk do you listen,
    or do you sit there.
    Do my words go in one and out the other ear.

    When you look at me
     do you see me like I see myself,
    Do you see me at all
    am I silent ghost crying out for help.

    Not to be seen or heard,
    never a single word.
    Flying alone like a young bird
    out for the first time.

    Dependent on my self,
    Because I have no one else
    but me myself and I

    Dont know where Im going
    Hard to think of where I've been
    I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders
    I can feel my chest caving in.

    I cant believe Im saying this but,
    maybe its the end.
