Invisible

Submitted by Roxanna on Tue, 05/01/2007 - 01:01

I’m sitting here,
Quietly listening.
Your conversation continues.
Though you are next to me,
Your back is turned.
You don’t see me.
It’s as if I am
Invisible.

Here I am again,
Standing against the wall.
You walk around
Chatting happily,
Never noticing me,
Or the tear that almost falls.
It’s as if I am
Invisible.

I am in a room
With one hundred other people.
But even with the noise around me,
I feel alone.
The someone beside me
Doesn’t know me.
It’s as if I am
Invisible.
