Unseen

In a world where I give my best each day,
I try so hard in every single way.
I share my all with a hopeful heart,
But it seems my efforts fall apart.

No one seems to notice, I'm out of sight,
In this struggle, I hide my plight.
I do my best to make them see,
But I'm like a whisper in a roaring sea.

I feel like a shadow, quiet and small,
No one sees me, no one hears my call.
But I'll keep on trying, doing my part,
Hoping one day, I'll touch a heart.

Even if I'm just a face in the crowd,
I'll keep giving, saying clear and loud,
"I'm here, I care," though I'm ignored,
I'll keep on loving, with strength restored.

It is not easy when we feel invisible, but many can feel like this.. it is never nice when one does not feel appreciated... your rhyme your poems really well and the flow is also very good... I hope you can find people who actually see you...
