Invisible

Wipe away the make up,
The stain no one sees.
Don't fuss with pretty clothing,
Pains no one needs.

For you are invisible,
A girl for no eye,
Room full of people, but,
No need for disguise.

A heart full of feeling,
Love no one shares.
Stand just by doorways,
Know no one cares.

For you are invisible,
No face to recall.
A shadow in the corner,
Some one very small.

The man will not see you,
Watch him pass by.
The man will not love you,
Will not see you cry.

For you are invisible,
A girl no one knows,
Excluded always, but,
The pain never shows.
