Shadow

She was a shadow, fluttering in the breeze. She wasn't there, yet somehow she was. 1

The day I met her was amazing. She did random acts of kindness to everyone she met. She did none to me. Maybe it was because she had been in my class me whole life and I was just now seeing her. Whatever the reason..I was as invisible to her as she was to the rest of the world. 2

Her name was Angela...yet those who talked to her called her Angel. I believe she may have been one. She had a radiant glow to her, one you couldn't ignore. She was funny, smart,kind, and beautiful to some. She was amazing. She was untouchable.3

Unreachable. I tried to understand her. But she slipped through my fingers. This girl was totally amazing. She had nothing to gain.....nothing to lose. She lived her life as if she knew she would die the next day. 4

I wanted to hold her in my arms. To make her smile. She had a beautiful smile. She never smiled though, too many people picked on her. she had a close circle of friends, and she always showed up at the right parties, yet she wasn't popular.5

One day she was gone....and we found ourselves missing her. Those of us who didn't even know her missed her. Who knew such a girl could have such an impact on my whole school?6

    hey, i know how you feel. people are so sure that everyone else has to be exactly like them that most everyone forms to be that way. and then someonee new comes along and its like, " whoa...big shock. " but they still ignore them and when they finally leave and are finally back to their conformist world they miss the change.
