Invisible

They really don't know me. My existence doesn't affect them. Unseen on the crowded streets. Just another passing breeze. A name not even carelessly whispered. Just another number. I'm falling through the cracks. An echoless scream resounds in my ears. And so it goes for years and years. The same unvisited house. Never noticed at the end of the street. Where curtains of iron protect; From intruders who never come. The unpainted mailbox,cocooned in cobwebs. Houses the loveletters yet to be sent. Near the unmarked grave; In a lonely plot embedded in weeds. Where the flowers are invisible just like me.
