"When there is snow on the ground, I like to pretend I'm walking on clouds."


The bell rings,
Texbooks slam shut
and doors open
to floods of crowded people.

I jump in,
Not worring about my landing.
Now I'm lost within a pool of sounds.


The talking all around me,
I drown it out.
The shuffling of feet,
it fades away.
The slamming of lockers,
is only a disant memory.

I quietly walk
amungst the noise.
Invisible to all,
espically you.
Maybe you'll see me one day.
But I fear that day is far from now.

Untill then,
I will forever be
the shadow behind you,
silently lost in
a sea of hallyways.

&quot;The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.&quot; <br /> &quot;Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.&quot;

This is so true! I was going to write a poem about this exact thing! You basically wrote down exactly how it feels to walk through the hallways for me!
