Invisible

by .::Lovely*Letdown::.   Aug 5, 2006


Living my same old stone cold lie is starting to seep through more than just my shallow skin, freezing the unsteady beating of my once vulnerable heart.
It doesn't affect me anymore, for no one looks deep enough to care.
Silhouettes of my faded away self dance across the mirror as i cover up my once gleaming eyes that used to long for laughter, love, and LIFE.
Now, when i think of these things, i see crushed dreams and broken wishes never to become more.
That girl was a shooting star...
She crashed into the screaming reality called LONILINESS.
I'm used to it now...
or AM I?...
Just another smile to hide the tears.
Just another face in the world who doesn't belong.
Just another girl watching from the sidelines as everyone she was once close to slip from her grasp one by one.
I'm trapped in my semiconcious, hollow skin.
Scratches remain, for i want OUT.
I want to experience the wonders of life.
But the thing is, nobody ever gets close enough to SEE me...
They always see right through me.
"That's the girl who's so happy to be herself. She's so OUTGOING..."
Little do they know that insecurity is seeping through the pores of my shrinking heart.
That's ME.
That's HER.
INVISIBLE...

    Excellent write, I really enjoyed this poem because I can really relate, but then again, who can't? and that's what makes this poem SO great! Everyone feels invisible, more than others, but we all have that feeling some point in our life. I also like that you kinda (I think you were @ least) conveyed the idea don't judge by the outside skin, you don't know me. I've been judged my whole life so I can sorta relate. 5/5 for sure!!!

    Dear..you're invisible to NO ONE! you may think that, but whoops, not true. People see in you, not because they see right through you, not because your invisible, but because they look deep into you. They aren't looking past you, they are looking in you. Love you forever and a day
