Invisible

Invisible

A Poem by Julie Alcin
"

Feeling lonely and insecure

"

Imperceptible, unnoticed, undetectable

Undetectable, indiscernible, indistinguishable

Every word that describes me and how I feel

Pokerfaced life that feels so unreal

Unloved, unnamed, and certainly unknown

Millions of emotions that will never be shown

All hide deep inside my skin

So I cut myself to show what’s within

But no one pays attention, maybe they’re too cheap

And now because of my uncertainties I will never get some sleep

Obscure, misjudged, mistaken

My heart is broke, my world is shaken

Misunderstood by everyone I know

So I don’t let my true colours show

I dim in the sun like a shadow in the light

Everything is so dark I don’t even know what’s bright

Where’s my self confidence, is it buried like my dreams?

Is it covered with my hopes and under my billion screams?

My terrible fate echoes in my head

No one hears my cries, I feel like one of the dead

I might as well be, but would the dead even see me

All of my friends were all imaginary

And even they were a bit mean

I would do anything just to be seen

To be loved, understood, to be named something sweet

To come into the light and not to be trampled under everyone’s feet

But my wishes don’t get answered for no one would ever listen

If they even tried their hearts and eyes would glisten

I always heard that it’s better to be you

But the world will never care about something that is true
