**Everything Below the Sky** *"How do you like to go up in a swing, up in the air so blue?"* When Madeleine Mae Monroe was seven years old, she believed that if she swung high enough, the wind might carry her beyond the iron gates of her family's home. Above her was an endless blue sky. Below her was a world she was still learning how to survive. Growing up in a small Georgia mining town, Maddie learns that girls are expected to grow up before they are ready. They are taught to be patient, responsible, and understanding long before anyone asks what they need. They are told that maturity comes naturally, when really it is something the world demands from them. In the Monroe household, Maddie becomes the girl who notices everything and is noticed by almost no one. Her father works beneath the earth in the coal mines, her mother quietly carries the weight of the family, and her brilliant older brother, Caspian, becomes the hope everyone places their future on. But as Maddie gets older, the silence she once accepted becomes harder to live with. Beyond the gates of her home, she finds people who see her differently. A group of friends who remind her how to laugh. A best friend who listens to the words she struggles to say. A boy who teaches her that love can be gentle instead of something she has to earn. But healing is not simple, and growing up does not mean carrying everything alone. **Everything Below the Sky** is a coming-of-age story about family, friendship, first love, sexism, mental health, and a girl learning that she is more than the roles the world has chosen for her.

Poems about feeling like no one hears you or sees you

"Invisible Echoes: Poems of the Glass Child" is a haunting collection that dives deep into the fragile heart of the unseen, the unheard, and the overlooked. Through a series of beautifully crafted sonnets, villanelles, sestinas, and other advanced poetic forms, these verses paint the portrait of the glass child-a silent figure who lives in the shadow of another's light. Exploring themes of neglect, favoritism, and quiet despair, each poem pulls the reader into a world where love feels just out of reach, and every smile is a fragile mask hiding the pain beneath. This collection captures the unspoken grief of those who learn to be strong in silence, finding beauty in the cracks of their glass hearts. Written with raw emotion and poignant imagery, "Invisible Echoes" is not just a book of poems-it's a voice for those who have never been truly seen.

-English isn't my first language- I'm the glass child, quiet and clear, Invisible to those I hold dear. In the stillness of my quiet room, always wrapped in my own gloom. My sister's pain, a thunderous storm, Overshadows the shape I've worn When I was sad, I swallowed it whole, Thinking her hurt was the one to console. Her struggles paint the walls in fear, Her battles loud, her anguish clear. So I've learned to hide my own despair, To stay unseen, unnoticed there. When my heart ached, I kept it low, Believing her suffering should always show. Her mental struggles, a heavy load, Made me feel my sadness was a mere shadow I heard my mom cry just last night, Over problems that I recognise A burden they think my sister bears, But it's mine, though no one cares. I listened from my silent space, Her tears falling in a broken trace. I knew the pain they thought they saw Wasn't hers, but mine, beneath the law. I sit in my room, breaking apart, Cracks forming deep in my fragile heart. In the shadow, I've learned to be, A faded echo, never free. Yet in the darkness, I remain unseen, A glass child lost in the space between I am the whisper in their noise, A muted echo with no voice. Their love and care, a distant shore, While I stand here, forever more. For my feelings, they never see, In the shadow of their misery. I am the ghost they cannot find, A silent tear, a hidden mind. In the quiet, I've learned to be, A glass child, clear but empty. With every crack, my heart does show, Yet still, in silence, I must go. -v

A "glass child" is a term used to describe a child who grows up with a sibling who has significant needs, such as a disability, chronic illness, or other condition requiring substantial parental attention and care. These children are often described as feeling invisible or overlooked, as parental focus is primarily directed towards the sibling with the higher needs. The term "glass" is used because these children may appear strong and resilient, but they may also be struggling with unmet emotional needs.
