Whispered Beauty

--------------------------------------------------------------------

A silent word,

Whispered as she walks by,

Never heard by her ears,

but she sees the whispering,

immediatly she wonders what's wrong with her,

she stares down at herself,

is she a freak,

or do people just plain hate her?

She goes through highschool, seeing people always whispering.

Self-esteem going through the floor.

Never knowing that the whispers,

are of her extreme beauty.

The whisperers sound kind of inconsiderate. Not to mention impolite; don't they know whispering is rude?

Sorry, just analyzing. It's a spectacular poem!

I think the people are supposed to be kinda rude.

Good idea, Koffee. Tell those people just how rude they're being! (Of course, my teacher would say you're being too confrontational.)

Yeah, I tend to be kind of up-front. That can be a really good thing or a really bad thing depending on circumstances and opinion :D

I like how you made her feel totally insecure about the whispers imagining what they were saying when really...

I totally think the poem is great!
