She is invisible
watching the world
with her big blue eyes
from behind a curtain
of white-blonde hair
She never speaks
except to apologize 
in a quiet voice
that is easily
overpowered
Sometimes
she wishes 
that she could be
loud and confident
like her extrovert friends
But there is a beauty
in her silence
and her quiet grace
There's a look in her eyes
that shows wisdom
behind the meekness
and when someone
is hurting
she eases their pain
with her quiet words
and empathy
She is shy
but her personality is strong
even if her voice
trembles
