Invisible

Butterflies surround me,
but my body they never see.
Up against the wall,
I'm invisible now.
Throw me a rope,
I think I'm gonna' fall.
Lions prance by,
as if my soul has
already taken flight.
I close my eyes,
and imagine I'm dancing
to steel drums.
I awake to see,
I am invisible once
again, and I feel numb.
I close my eyes to escape
the horror.
And I try to become stronger,
but I can't take this struggle
much longer.

To live is to love, and to love is to live... the meaning of life.

I feel lonliness and fear in this one. Very well done. I guess we can all relate to this at one time or another in our lives.
