Invisible

[Chanz]

I saw you the other day, you looked right at me,

You looked straight through me, as if I was never there,

You see just another kid,

So why should you care?

 

I notice everything you do;

Every little smile;

Every little laugh;

All these things melt my heart into a pile.

 

How can I get you to notice me?

I wish you knew that i exist,

Even knowing my name would good,

Or saying g'day when you are pissed.

 

Any little hint, that shows you know I am here,

Any little sign,

Anything that will give me hope,

That one day you will be mine.

This reminds me very much of a Gary Larsen cartoon I loved oh so many years ago. It goes something like this:

 

split panel, top and bottom.

In the top, a boy lies on her bed, the full moon showing through his window. Thought balloon: "I think she likes me! I hope she likes me. She doesn't know I exist. I should talk to her. I should breath around her. She looked at me in the hallway! Or at someone behind me. I hope she likes me..."

bottom panel:

A girl lies in her bed, thinking. Same full moon outside her window.

"I think I like chocolate."

Same planet, different worlds...
