#invisble - Hello Poetry

Black bird in a golden cage. It feels as if God has placed a veil over my soul. I can look out, but no one sees me looking. I stand in a garden of beauty, yet my stem bears no bloom. A small sapling, my roots reaching down into hell. Unseen, unrecognised - yet do you not feel them beneath your feet? If only you could see my soul, if only God had not hidden it from you. The wolves that would have snarled at the scent of prey pass by, none the wiser. Faceless, I see the façades of people - only the silhouette of muscle and bone. They buzz around the hive as though it all makes sense. I remain apart. The signs point to reason, to protection, to preservation of the self - or is it that He is protecting them from me? It is always within reach to become what I once feared.

Black bird in a golden cage. It feels as if God has placed a veil over my soul. I can look out, but no one sees me looking. I stand in a garden of beauty, yet my stem bears no bloom.

I am alive in your little world because you still have to find ways to walk around me. When I step forward, you step back, as if we were dancing. Avoidance is not absence; it exists precisely in the place you refuse to look. We’ve entered a new phase in our relationship, one between the eraser and the word being erased. But I’m written in ink.

_____ In a fleeting moment when one holds onto a rock, they feel so invincible... Yet, if one holds fiercely to their pride, surely their emotional intelligence is all but invisible? Invisibly invincible.

I know you think you're invisible You are not They are in fact completely blind You are a chosen one in the land of the lost That mirror in the bedroom Plays tricks on a beautiful mind Put there to confuse but you only lose If you believe their lies I know you think you're invisible We sometimes believe what we are told I have always seen you I'm the truth within your soul

Invisible Reflection (Part Two)

I know you think you're invisible You are not They are in fact completely blind You are a chosen one in the land of the lost That mirror in the bedroom Plays tricks on a beautiful mind Put there to confuse but you only lose If you believe their lies I know you think you're invisible We sometimes believe what we are told I have always seen you I'm the truth within your soul

I am air; I am everywhere. I am the breeze in the trees, I am the moving clouds above, I am the wind, dancing as I pass I am air; I am everywhere. I expand; I decompress; I warm; I cool; I am air; I am everywhere. I am the breathe in you, I am the swirling feeling in your stomach, I am the oxygen, encompassing every part of you. I am air; I am everywhere. I am in the heavens, I am in the balloons, I am in the rivers, I am in the reeds, I am air; I am everywhere. I am invisible, but I am there. I am nowhere, but I am everywhere.

I am air.

I am air; I am everywhere. I am the breeze in the trees, I am the moving clouds above, I am the wind, dancing as I pass I am air; I am everywhere. I expand; I decompress; I warm; I cool; I am air; I am everywhere. I am the breathe in you, I am the swirling feeling in your stomach, I am the oxygen, encompassing every part of you. I am air; I am everywhere. I am in the heavens, I am in the balloons, I am in the rivers, I am in the reeds, I am air; I am everywhere. I am invisible, but I am there. I am nowhere, but I am everywhere.
