See that girl in class that never speaks a word unless spoken to? That’s me. That girl also has ears and feelings.
I hear you whisper my name in a conversation saying how weird I am.
I’m aware, thank you.
She’s really quiet but she is screaming inside.
I’ve tried to not be so quiet but it’s just who I am. I’m insecure and don’t like to be noticed.
But I wish I was that girl that can brighten up the room.
Now, the littlest things can make me hurt inside. It hurts to the point that I cut myself. I do it to bleed and feel pain physically. Those first seconds of pain and blood make me feel better. its like i start concentrating on the pain only.
No, I don’t do it for attention because I hide it but I do it to remind myself I am still living.
Its crazy that life and death are balanced at the edge of a razor.
Think twice before judging.
The quietest person you may know has the most to say.

I always prefer the quiet people because they notice so much more. They’re not so busy being the center of attention and thinking about themselves. 🙂

Very true. All of your words say so much.
wow as if i came across this post, i am the same thing, in school i never talked unless spoken to. torture all the way yp until gr 11 when i cracked idk how anyone could have lasted that long in what my sad excuse for a life . thankyou for posting this.
you have no idea how being that way screwwed over my life
….ive thought about what cause this ‘selective mutism’ as ithink you could call it, but idk the origin. i have hated myself and could never accept how pathetic iwas…
I can’t say I’m quiet.I am that person that always has a smile on his face talkinq,flirtinq, and beinq loud.It makes time qo fast.And no I’m no where near the center of attention.
Life and death are balanced at the edqe of a razor blade,I like that cause It’s so true!
Im more or less the same as lifeisgorribe, im the funny one whose always laughing and being loud…but then again im also the girl who sits in the libary reading books allday…
I was that quiet kid in class.
And Marissa, I also made it a point in my life to speak to the other quiet kids and try to connect with them. Because few else would and I felt it was unfair.
I would talk to you.
But the life of the party on the party scene because that was one of the ways I made good money back then without needing a tax sucking tedious normal job.
I can relate to this so much. When I’m sitting there in silence, surrounded by friends, I’m thinking of ways to just disappear. And inside I’m screaming but no one can hear. There is so much I long to say, but never will. I might not be as quiet as I used to be, but what I’m not saying is far more significant than what I am saying.
