Invisible

by No1ButMe   Apr 25, 2011


For many years of my life
I've leaned against a wall
Blending into the background
No one would ever see me fall
A wall flower to some
But just invisible to the rest
Never to be among the beautiful
Never to become the best
Some label me a freak
Some look at me like I'm odd
But I've long stopped pretending
I've thrown away the facade
I have scars all over my body
And I don't care if you know
Because this is the real me
I'm not putting on a show
No one gives me a second look
No one ever dares to ask why
I never need to explain myself
I have no need to lie
Some might think it's awesome
You might even call it great
But let me enlighten you
You have made a mistake
There is no one to love you
Or ever tell you, you're right
No one to pick you up again
Or help you with this fight
No one to cheer you on
Or help you find your way
No one there to share
Your good or your bad days
No one to hold you
Or teach you how to feel
No one to tell you how to act
Or how to help you deal
No one to stop you
From the choices that you make
No one to help sew up your heart
The moment that it breaks
No one to stop you from the darkness
Letting it consume your life
No one to pull you away
From becoming addicted to the knife
But I've grown accustom
To reality being this way
And no matter what happens
I know this will stay
I have left the wall
And am leaving it all behind
I am completely invisible
I'm someone, no one will ever find
I've stepped into the darkness
Surrounding me just black
I've embraced my invisibility
And there is no going back...
