People


people are like Icebergs

there is so much more than meets the eye

to you they are just another person behind you in line at the bank 

but in reality they are a mother,

a wife,

a sister,

a daughter,

a pta member,

and a coach

and to her you are some teenager taking too long at the ATM. 

 

you have the power to invent their lives for them 

you are your own main character

who are the supporting characters
