Do We Ever Wonder?

Everyone is different
In their own special way.
They each have defined who they are
And made a strong tower protecting that valuable possession.

We all know about
The outgoing and loud people
In this world,
And what they can do,
But very few know about
The intellectual and intrapersonal
People of the earth.
What do they do in their spare time?
What are they like?

There are tons of questions
We would probably ask
If we had the chance to.
They have hidden their talents
In their souls for so long,
There are like outcasts
Living life in a different world,
Without anybody knowing
What a wonderful and talented
Person they really are.

Do we long to know,
The thoughts of these people,
The feelings,
The way they live?

Then why haven’t we talked to them?
Do we even care about them?
If the rest of the world doesn’t care about them,
What do they think of us?
That we are selfish and don’t care about others,
And that they are better off without us.

Think about it,
What does that say about us?
Do we even care?
Do we wonder even if a tiny bit?

This is a poem I wrote about the people who are different and are commonly never really noticed. I go through this regular and I am probably not the only one.
