That English teacher sounds like a real jerk.
They say you always remember the good Teachers . That\'s half true as you remember the bad . My English Teacher was very helpful and didn\'t Hit you like the rest. She was also a Babe, but that\'s beside the Point.
People always say that I\'m very quiet. I usually say \' I\'m not Quiet l\'m just between sentences\'.
Anyway enough of my Ramblings: A fine Poem.

As a student I really do resonate with this, how people often care more about the fact you look unhappy rather than thinking about why (it\'s often them hahaha, so I\'m glad they don\'t ask). It makes me feel even better looking at the long list of comments who reciprocate the feelings.

Great Write and Thank you

My invisible self. How very wonderful to get inside your mind. I was translucent at school by many teachers however I have two or three that truly were there with me. What a wonderful subject, you took me back to being 11, kudos. 🌹

Nataiella, this hits with truth...and that’s always hard to shake. The way you hold that emotional distance...it’s not cold, it’s protective. The repetition of judgment and questions mirrors the weight of living unseen. You captured that inner other-world beautifully, my dear friend. Hope all has been well in my absence. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Cheeky Missy said:

They\'ve a term, or rather terms, psychological labels for such behaviors, and nowadays a plethora of support groups for all of us who never were exactly \"extroverted,\" nor the most sociable [by their standards], nor as ready to render ourselves complete fools by answering or responding as if we completely understood. I doubt we\'re really that odd, but who knows. By adulthood, my loving father advised me to keep my jaw from hanging open [an unconscious gesture] lest people think me stupid when he knew otherwise. Theoretically we\'ve an ability to live freely now. Perhaps we\'ve only rather found a place where others like ourselves are. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a vibrant poignancy. Thank you very much for sharing.

This poem captures the quiet ache of feeling unseen and misunderstood, where detachment is not indifference but a shield against intrusion. There’s such a poignancy in the contrast between external judgment and internal complexity of what’s perceived versus what’s felt. The speaker isn’t absent, just elsewhere.

Friendship said:

What a magnificent poem! It strikes a chord within me, and I comprehend and can identify with its essence. Your poem \"Blank Expression\" explores themes of emotional isolation, misunderstanding, and the struggle for authentic communication. It reflects the internal experience of someone who feels disconnected from others and struggles to convey their feelings or thoughts.

Thank you for your feedback, I wrote it an english class for the teacher teaching us, he used to get great enjoyment of ridiculing me infront of the other pupil\'s, he didn\'t like the poem. Hope you have a wonderful weekend

A child who\'s elevator went to the top floor but who chose to lock the door. Clever use of metaphor for a child what\'s more. All messing around aside Tobani this was very nicely worked out for a child. It shows early indications of poetic ability. Thanks for sharing.

Charming and irresistible in tantalizing tercet stanzas, the root of it all begging an elusive answer. Beer has been called \"the nectar of the gods!\" While history has illustrated how effective music is on the creation, the garbage trotted out nowadays leaves the ignorant sorely lacking. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

A poem that I enjoyed. Music does seem to be a language of the gods and a conveyor of emotions. It is a type of poetry all its own. Well said Tobani
