Invisible

Invisible.

I have spent my life being

invisible.

Being passed up,

passed by,

and passed over.

Then one day there was you,

an answer to my unspoken prayer.

From the first moment

It was only you.

I gave you a gift...

My loyalty.

I had hoped that would be enough

Enough to stop the tides

in your mind.

Enough to make a difference.

Enough to make me whole.

I have never wavered

I have held true.

But tonight

you gazed past me

to see another...

another.

It was then

that it came to me

You never noticed.

You never cared.

And I am invisible

once more.

I wrote this when i was at work one night.  Too bad it is true and the person it is for has no idea.
