Most people don't know me.
It's hard to know someone who tries so hard to go unseen.
But I've gotten used to being unnoticed
And when someone sees through my cloak of invisibility I get scared.
If they can see through this wall around me, what else can they see
What else do they know about me?
What if they can see into my past and read every flaw, mistake, and wrong
What if they can tell when I'm acting
When I'm covering up my true feelings?
Most people don't know me.
I like it that way.
No questions to answer
No worrying about what others think
It isn't so bad being a background character
I've learned to notice the things most people overlook
Small details like the glint in the eyes or a twitch of the pinky
Most people don't know me
Most days I like it that way
But some days, I wish someone would tell me they can see me
