Welcome to the year, that invisible I became. An ordinary life, made complicated by simplicity itself. In all honesty my disappearance began, when decisions didn't matter. My thoughts were transparent. My love was like contact paper on a book. I struggle to appear, but the more I struggle the more I disappeared. Even my tears didn't show. Or at least no one saw them. My sadness, had a hard time letting go, it fought until the end to no avail. My hands were the first to go, they stopped doing what they loved the best. In time everything was gone. Now I hold nothing, endlessly I stand. People walk right pass me, specially the ones that I love. I talk no one listens. And in my misery, misery holds me. Welcome to the year, that invisible I became. The year I lost it all, my life, my love, my all. |

The sadness your words portray. Oh how I hope you become visible again, to someone who will appreciate your love. |

I don't believe you are invisible at all. This is coincidental. I attended the musical Chicago last night and this poor fellow had such a poor opinion of himself that he thought he was invisible. Joyce |

we are never so invisible that the heart cannot see. . . sad write walker. . . -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

made complicated by simplicity itself." I think this line is superb, walker - You've got a wonderful knack for expressing yourself... Nicely done... Let us know when you register your son - We'll rally round and give him the grand Passionate welcome... |

This is beautiful Walker. You've captured such sorrow within these lines, one that can be felt deeply. Wonderful expression and phrasing, very nicely written! Best wishes, /Kit |

Never feel you are invisible, My Friend, because someone ALWAYS see's! Just we don't always know it. Sauni Sauni :) |
