Cloak of Invisibility

A barricade blocks

Old memories

A mask is worn

To disguise emotions

Pain and anger

Deep within

Indifference or joy

The upper layer

Memories or thoughts

Haunt her everyday

But none are the wiser

To see what’s beneath

They pass her in the halls

Not even a “Hello”

They see her online

There’s no “How are you?”

Wish only someone

Could see past the wall

And could alleviate the pain

That she bears everyday

Hidden beneath

A cloak of invisibility
