The little girl in the corner,
all her teachers adore her.
She has no friends,
she's just waiting for the end.
She never says a word,
or at least none that you've heard;
you think she's just shy,
while inside she dies.
She doesn't show up to school one day,
you don't know why, you don't know what to say.
You heard it through the grapevine,
but you thought there would have been a sign.
She developed leukemia since she was three,
now your tears break free,
you never gave her a second glance,
and now you've lost your only chance.
The littler girl in the corner,
now everyone mourns her.

I like it. Not a winner though. Thanks for entering.

a good write about life and how it passes us by when we dont pay attention to those around us...

Wow this is a really sad poem but you portrayed sadness very well in this poem. I wish your friend the best of luck! That is so great that you would take the time to write a poem for her, lovely. Have a great day!

awww this is so sad... I hope she does get better, it's a shame to have a ticking clock on you, she sounds so lovely. My best to her.

Thank you for the entry. I enjoyed this piece of work. I liked the rhyming at most parts, though in a few places it seemed forced.
Well done. -
Awwwww. This is sad and it could happen so easily. People are sometimes afraid to reach out for fear of rejection I guess. When someone is quiet we think they don't want to be bothered ... then like the write says, we lose our chance. Nice job. The rhyme is good and the message is great! Pass on my well wishes to Sarah.

Wow! your friend Sarah must be one lucky and beautiful person to be thought of and written about in a poem that is so well written and powerful. Well done. I believe that everyone deserves a friend like you!
I hope she gets better soon and people start to notice her as she is worthy of that cause.

Wow. A short, but powerful write. How true that we often miss out on the most wonderful friendships because of our short-sighted humanity.
