Her way

She had a way about her

That made the boys fall in love

She was needy and safe

They felt as if

They had to have her

Open up her heart

Most girls were confident

Or pretty

Or strong

But she was thoughtful

Always something on her mind

She looked down at the ground

When walking through the halls

People still pushed her

And stepped on her feet

She used to try to get noticed

By then she stopped

She realized tight jeans

Just weren't right

Walked with her head held high

That is why they noticed her

That was her way

She was her self

Even though she rarely spoke

People wondered

What would make her choke

On what words would she stumble

How for would she go

To stay off in the shadows

And be all on her own

She tried to force them

To just leave her alone

But that would do no good

They cared

She didn't really know

Love was an unfamiliar thing

But she had a way

Still they asked

Few out loud

But she heard her name

being whispered through the halls

That was her way

The needy are lonely

And the lonely are appealing

But the appealing keep silent
