Foot tapping anxiously against the ***** pavement,
Body curled into a tight ball
concealed behind a pillar.
Invisible to all,
save for one.

Circular surveillance camera,
your eye trained on me,
what do you see?
Do you see what I see,
looking up at my warped reflection?
I see nothing.
I see something invisible,
pointless,
afraid,
cold,
but the most striking thing about the reflection,
is just how empty it is.

There's nothing there,
the people pass by without a glance
and I give up.
Like light paper
I let the wind pass through me
and carry away the remains.
I allow myself to cease to exist,
because in reality, I never really did.
