I Want to Be Seen

Also by a Close Friend

I notice my friends,

The way they act

When I’m not around.

The way they laugh and smile,

Not even acknowledging that

I’m nowhere to be found.

I want to be seen,

But no one even spots me.

I beg and I plead,

But still not a soul

Ever catches a glimpse.

As I walk through their eyes,

They still can’t tell

That I’m wanting to be seen.

I scream and shout

But still no reply

They can’t see me,

they can’t hear.

And I’m looking at them

As I’m a mirror of their

Reflection.
