No One In Particular

I wonder whose fortune                                                                                                                      If not her own                                                                                                                                Was she separated from                                                                                                                                                                                         There's a style about the way she moves                                                                                         That seems so out of place on the street corner                                                                                     She's ghost like now                                                                                                                                    Invisible to the world around her                                                                                                                    Floating from one place to another                                                                                                                 Coveting the silence she has found                                                                                                      In being no one in particular

I really love this poem, Michael! I feel like I know this girl all to well, she is much like me. It is hard to be alone sometimes, but I enjoy the silence of keeping my own company. This poem was beautifully written! Excellent work! I am adding it to my favorites!...Thank you very much for the kind comments. I really appreciate it!
