I feel like I'm dissapearing.
Why do I feel like the
invisable man?

I stared out the window
looking at the rising sun
and found my self saying,
"Here I am, here I am".

Why do I feel like I'm the
invisable man?

I feel like I have to tell
the world, "Here I am, here
I am".

Suddenly a light went on and
I realized I was not alone.
She said to me,
"Will the crazy man come back
to bed?"

Suddenly I no longer felt
alone.

I came to her and said "here
I am here I am".

But still wondered why life
sometimes makes me feel like
the invisable man

I believe we are all invisible sometimes. I can walk through the makeup counters at Macy's and no one jumps out to spritz me with perfume. All my friends want to walk with me so they can avoid the dreaded spritzer girls......I liked your poem.

This sounds a lot like it was borrowed from a Joshua Kaddison song Invisable Man
