It's funny,
How a girl who has talents to stand out, is unnoticed. All the time.
She sits down silently,
Counting the hours 'till it ends,
While everyone looks past her,
As if she was a ghost.
'Am I invisible?' She asks herself.
She counts,
Everyone acknowledging smile,
Hoping they finally see her,
But is yet to be disappointed, again.
People wave at her,
When she's alone.
But that's all the attention she gets,
That's all she has.
She silently cries,
She knows it's pathetic,
But she only wants to be known,
To be a somebody
Dreams of being famous,
Standing onstage.
But sadly realizing,
It's just a fake.
The one person she loves,
Is wrapped in his own world.
A world where she's the background,
A world where she doesn't exist.
So, it's fair,
These tears streaming down her face,
She wants to stand out,
Be different.
She tries so hard,
With her polite smiles,
Her funny tone,
But it's not good enough.
So, she writes it down,
To the world.
Where people don't see her face
But her words, for once.
She can show her true colors,
Through things she loves,
Which is poetry,
Posted to the universe.
She prays,
That there is someone reading,
Someone who sees through her words,
Gets the clue,
Helps her.
All she has to do,
Is wait.
But that's what she has been doing,
For her past life.
These tears are for something more,
Something that matters to us all,
But we find it so easy,
That we forget that there are people,
Who can't.
So, I write it down,
To the world.
Where people can't see my face,
But my words, for once.
I write, because I want you to know,
This world will never be perfect.
*Never
Unnoticed.
Unnattractive.
Unrealistic.
Unbelievable, hey?
