Invisible Entity

Invisible

A glass of water held still

Holds no reflective love today.

Invisible

Standing between two people

The glares they stare, pass right through.

Invisible

I look to the mirror out of the shower

All I can see is boiling mists of steam.

Invisible

Where am I?

Where have I gone that no one can see?

Where did I lose my opacity?

Invisible

Were I to cut; Would I even bleed?

Would a bullet find only empty space?

Would a body even fall to the ground?

Would a noose just sway in the wind?

Would there be anything to remember?

Would there even be a grave?

Invisible

Am I everyone’s regret?

Am I so wrong?

That they forget I have song too..

I’d sing it if I thought they’d listen!

But I fear they would only hear

A passing breeze in the night.

Invisible

I had a thought like this the other day.. It reminds me of living life with a barrier of pexi glass around you.. People can see you but don't touch, don't hear, and inside all the don'ts you are left behind.. standing still watching life pass you by.. xo Painful thoughts but well penned...x

At one point I had a character that lived in an abusive house, where the parents never noticed anything they did. This poem was something I had the character use to bring across the concept of being invisible.
