Invisible Me

You never seem to look at me
Like glass
You look right through me
I dare you to understand me
But you never see me
I long for you to be me
To feel what it is like for me
To ache for you
To be the reason why you smile
Why you laugh
It has been a while
A long while
Because I am gone
Dead to you
You erased all the good that was us
And fed your mind the story you told the world
To reinforce why I should be invisible
Dead to you
How convincing are you?
Others morn for you
Feel sorry for you
Poor victim are you
You never disclose that you are untrue
For if you did
It wouldn't make sense for there to be
An invisible me

So my reality is filled with pain
Because I am tied to you
Yet I am invisible me
Dead to you
I began believing no one would see me
But he does
He sees me
My hips
My eyes
The way my hair lies
On each shoulder
I never noticed
But he noticed
And I grow bolder
I am happy once again
I am alive
He sees me
No longer am I invisible
I am me
