Voiceless, Faceless, Lifeless

Silent steps, no one notices    
Echoes in a crowded place  
Voiceless, I blend in with the faces    
A ghost among the living, unnoticed  
   
In the throngs, I am invisible    
A stranger in my own skin    
No one sees me,    
no one is able to hear my thoughts,    
my cries within  
   
The weight of loneliness, a constant load
Days tie together, a monotonous blend  
I am invisible, unheard, alone    
Trapped in my own personal end  
   
I scream for help, for someone to see    
But the world keeps turning, indifferent
The ghost inside me, slowly fading    
Out of sight
