Invisible to HIM
November 30, 2011
Dear Him,
I see you
everyday as you walk by
And I hear you
as you speak over me
And I am lost
when your eyes look though me
towards those behind me
I don't think you know
My dear Him
how I have guarded you
never said I hated you
like all the rest
And I don't think you know
how I have helped you
been ready to tell you the answer
or bring you one
Dear Him,
You haven't noticed
Have you
?
the way me lips twitch
wanting to thank you
for being kind
to my friends
that you can see
but not me
Dear Him
Him
I am I really such shadow and air
I open my lips
a slur comes out
and you look at me
then past me again
Dear Him
Even if I remain
invisible
unsightly
I will be there
silently helping
and guiding too
