Invisible Girl

Do you see her?
Hear her?
Is she there... is she not?
Do you know, do you care?
She stands next to you, but you don't notice
She speaks, but you choose not to hear
Everyone is aware
She's there
Though no one seems to really care
Yet, if they need someone 
She's suddenly the only one
She doesn't mind, she likes being there
When they go out, she's left out
All in couples, all but one
Doesn't matter, no one cares
She's like a first aid kit
You bring it along just in case
Don't really need it unless you get hurt
It's okay, she likes to heal and protect
She's there, and you know it
You hear her but pretend you didn't 
She's left out, all in doubles
All but one
Doesn't matter
She's invisible girl

Lightning
It's quick
It hits
It creeps
It strikes
Gently
Then plenty
It's chaotic
It's wild
Yet at times subtle
It drives wonder
It's not good
It's Not Bad
It's neutral
Beautiful
Mighty
Lovely
Strikingly
Poetically
In its own Elegance

Tattoo❤

It's on my skin
It's on my lips
My heart and my soul
Inked by you
I remember asking you to
Give me a tattoo
You didn't want to
We were both drunk
Drunk on the vodka
Drunk on us
Said you didn't want to mess up
Now I lay here thinking
To that night
Regretting, wishing
You'd done it anyway
Because you still did
Your memory is inked all over me
Every crevice of my body
Your kiss like a needle
Still stings on my lips,
The ache remains a scar inside me,
And the ghost of your touch
Remains a mark on my skin
You didn't
But you did
You marked me all over
The difference is
Only I can feel it
And no one else can see it.
