She wanders through the crowd <br />It is as though she wasn't even there <br />No one acknowledges her presence <br />She is but a breath of air. <br /> <br />Have you ever felt alone in a crowd? <br />Wished you could be part of the scene <br />Felt as if everyone looks passed you <br />Wondered what it would be like to be heard. <br /> <br />She opens her mouth but no sound is heard <br />She walks but leaves no footprint in the sand <br />She feels no warmth within her heart <br />She hears no one call her name. <br /> <br />Next time you walk the busy street <br />Look for the wisp for it may be her <br />As you admire a beautiful sunset <br />Listen for the rustle of her words. <br /> <br />There is nothing more painful <br />As being alone in a crowd <br />Nothing so crushing <br />As having no voice. <br /> <br />See her, hear her, feel her love <br />She has so much she wants to give......<br /><br />Alison Smith<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/alone-in-a-crowd-3/
