No one notices me
Out of the light,
Out of sight.
I am invisible
Even to the naked eye;
I am starved,
Deprived of,
Words,
People,
Action;
And the pain,
The torture,
Never stops,
Never ends.
Nothing ever dies,
So they just
Ignore me,
Hoping
I will go away,
Vanish,
Die,
What do they care?
No one
Has ever cared for me,
Not even
Myself.
I am brain dead
To everything
And everyone,
Just a nutcase,
But they don't know
Me
Or
My past,
No one has ever
Or will ever
Ask.
So it builds up inside
Me,
Waiting to explode,
And when that day comes,
No one will even notice
I am gone.
Dead.
I am invisible.
