11. Not everyone needs words to speak.

Reserved, walls up

He stands all alone

No emotions, he speaks

In all monotone.

Watching the world

Spin round and round

Safe in his fortress

Making no sound.

Most don't notice

The thoughtful stares

They glance and see nothing

But they're unaware

Of a boy so brilliant

Hiding inside

That creative, amazing,

wondrous mind.

But no one sees

Fore they don't look.

They judge the cover

of his book.

But I want to hear

What he has to say.

I refuse to let him just walk away.

--------I want to hear his story.--------

Like a difficult equation,

He stands alone.

I attempt to carve

through all the stones

He's piled high around himself.

They can't get in

But he can't get out.

Like a riddle

I'll never be able to solve,

He never does what I expect.

The ropes I repeatedly keep trying to toss,

He always rejects.

Maybe that's why I can't

get him out of my head.

Maybe I want his mystery instead

Of answers. Maybe I don't really need

To know everything.

I don't want to break down

all of his walls,

I just wish I could be on his side.

I wish he didn't have to feel

Like he had no choice but to hide.

He's brave, he's smart

and I'm in awe of his smile

Because its one I almost

Never see.

I wish he'd stop seeing me as

just some girl

And finally really see me.

Lets be friends,

Emotionless boy.

I know you have secrets to hide.

You don't have to tell me

Just let me be there

And trust me enough

Not to lie.

You're not sad, you feel nothing.

Bullshit, I want to say.

But I'll nod and save it for another day.

Don't feel like you have to keep closing the doors.

You may not be my friend

But I'll always be yours.

Maybe he's not the weird one. Maybe you are. And maybe being the truly interesting person he is, is better than being the average clone that most people strive to be.

My goal right now is to earn his friendship and his trust.

I have no idea how I'm going to do that but I will, even if its the last thing I ever do. Wish me luck.

A/n: the last part I was just talking about the guy. Most ppl think he's just some weirdo kid but I think he's really awesome. He's the kind of person I want to learn everything about. Don't blind yourselves to the amazing ppl out there just because they aren't who you usually associate with. Everyone is amazing in their own way.

I know the flow sucks but honestly, I don't feel like editing it right now. I'll do it later(8 months later...)

~Enjoy~
