I'm not scared of public speaking, as long as it's not a scary public that speaks.

That moment when you have to take a deep breath before speaking because you know you're so close to crying.

Sometimes I wonder who I'd be today if the people that walked out on me, lied to me or betrayed me didn't... would I be a softer-speaking person? Would my walls not be as high, or as stiff? Would my transition from jovial to vexed be as noticable?
Who would be my friends; better yet who wouldn't? Sometimes, I wish I knew. Other times, I'm glad I don't. Everyone who has walked out on me, betrayed me, lied or took me for granted- they're all a reason why I am so strong today. I wish I could hate all of them, but I have to be thankful for them. I hate the fear, the Isolophobia. I do hate the insecurites cause by them, but had it not happened, I wouldn't be myself.
It's hard not to wonder, though.

Saying something outloud, then shrinking in your seat when everyone laughs at it and you realise it sounded better in your head.

Open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than the silence.

I am so sick of speaking words
that no one understands, is it clear enough to see you can't live your whole life all alone?
I can hear you in a whisper,
but you can't even hear me
screaming.

Dear Mr. Vernon,
We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a +///////////+ whole Saturday +///////////+ in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But we think you're crazy to make an essay telling you who {we think we are.} You see us as you want to see us. In the simplest terms; in the most CONVENIET DEFINITIONS. But what we found out is that each one of us is a
brain...
and an
athlete...
and a
basket case...
and a
princess...
and a
criminal...

Sincerely yours,

I wonder what it would be like
If we ever spoke again.
Would I be angry at you,
And scream about what you did?
Or would I bombard you with
Questions you'd find difficult to answer?
Would I tell you of my life
So far
Without you,
And the many things that happened,
Without you?
Would I ignore all you had to say
Because it was finally my turn to speak?
Would I cry because of all the lies
And the way you were never complete?
Or would I say nothing at all?
Ye s, I believe I would say nothing to you.

There are some people
who could hear you
speak a thousand words
and still not understand you.
And there are others
who will understand
without you even
speaking a word.

Last Word
Prologue
My name's Colton. I'm seventeen years young and I have very dark brown hair and light green eyes.
I have an opinion about everything and I always stick to it. It's my opinion, and I will anounce it,
even if it smashes yours. Okay, so I may seem a little harsh to some people, but it's better to speak out than to stay silent.
I'm the lead singer of a band called Shattered Thoughts. Right now we just do cover songs,
but I'm hoping to change that soon.
I've got some opinions that I want this world to hear, like it or not.
My name's Elizabeth. I'm sixteen and I stopped speaking three years ago.
Colton is the new guy in town. Elizabeth is the school shut out.
She became the loner of her school. In a small town, Elizabeth only has one way to keep her tragic secret.
She stopped speaking. When Colton shows up in town as the newbe, he's the new slice of gossip the small town craves.
He has the loudest opinions, and feels the need to scream it at anything with ears.
What happens when the silent girl and the siren boy meet?

I don't ever slur my words.
I occasionally speak in cursive.

That annoying moment when you start
the same sentence at least three times,
but someone keeps inturrupting you.

''Words do not express thoughts very well.
They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed,

I prefer not to think before I speak. I like being just as surprised as everyone else by what comes out of my mouth.
