Invisible


I am a lost soul in need of a way to go,
Because I cannot see my way out, from inside this black hole.
It has a hold of my soul
And it keeps dragging me down,
To a place I no longer want to be trapped inside;
But still here I exist, without a way out.


I don’t know how to escape because I have lived here too long.
This place of fear; this place that I live does not feel like home.
I am driving a car, but I cannot steer, just wail;
I am a passenger in the driver’s seat and I am stuck on rails.


Many lost souls to meet and we are all in need,
But no remedy is forthcoming, so we continue to be,
The wanderers, forever moving forward,
Into an unknown future.
What does fate have in store for us?


Are we to speak words or are we to remain silent?
How are we to wed when we have never been in love?
All I can catch with my love net is my own wasted breath
And as I confess all my dreams to you and yours;
I crash to the floor spent.


No spirit energy left;
No strength left to stand proud,
So towards you I crawl and drag myself towards your feet.
When I arrive before you, all I am able to ask,
Is…

Can you see me?
