It feels like something I’m not meant to see
Wearing this smile and invisibility
Living a life lost, somewhere in a dream
Where I am seen and loved for being me
I’m camouflaged in wanting to belong
Trying to bridge the gap between me and destiny
Living the lyrics of my favorite songs
That everybody knows but will not sing
Vanishing is easy, if you really want to know
Without the light, we all just fade away
When everything you ever wanted begins letting go
And you’re left alone with words you’ll never say

We all fade each day even just a tiny bit till our time comes.
Beautiful writing, Kelli. A whole piece of reflection at a time when most of us feel invisible.
Well written… my favourite line is the same as Lamar’s: “ Without the light, we all just fade away”
Nice entry, Kelli! Love the photo and this line stood out for me. -Without the light, we all just fade away-
