On Being Invisible

Have you ever wondered
what would be like to be
Invisible?
No one would question
If you are a woman or a man
If you are pale or tan
If you are short or tall
You wouldn't need to explain
Anything to anyone at all
No one would see your eyes
No one would know
If you were smiling or crying
No one would hurt your feelings
No one would break your heart
But you could never be kissed
Or feel what it's like to be held
You'd be looking for a way out
Of your humdrum existence
You'd be just a restless soul
hiding instead of living life
And you won't be happy at all
So, I would rather wear dark sunglasses
Cover my body and face with bandages
Wear a trench coat and a fedora hat
Than a life spent wandering with regret
