Being Invisible

Here I am, sitting in front of my computer,
Figuring out a better way to finish my work sooner
When suddenly, I turn around,
Only with a hopeless longing to be found

I get up and walk around, but alas, unnoticed,
I desperately run to my friends, I believe to be closest
They look at me, or right through me?
I feel soulless…its just the beginning of invisibility.

I am so alone, while standing in this crowd,
My voice is unheard even when I cry out loud.
There is a fear inside me, its really scary,
Its crawling like a spider, oh! It has got me!

Being invisible is painful,
It is slowly crushing me.
I am trapped beneath it,	
Will someone ever discover me?
