[Mercen-X]

Heartbeats pierce through scattered loneliness
Where am I now? Can you tell me this?
AM I HERE? AM I REAL? Can you TOUCH ME!?
Pay no mind to the things I say.
Needn't bother looking my way.
I'm just a figment of your MIND... anyway!

Like the boogeyman, I'm invisible; untouchable;
unreachable, I am just a shadow on the wall.
You don't look at me. You don't know of me.
You don't know my name. You've never heard of me.
You wouldn't talk to me. You'd walk away. I'll run away again.
This is how the world works.
[repeat after 3rd verse]

Voices derail random trains of thought,
wreaking havoc as I try to walk.
Do I speak? Do I shout? Can you hear me?
Pay no mind to the things I say.
None of it has ever mattered anyway.
I'm just a figment of you mind...

[end] It's just how the world works.

That's really sad, how people just walk by others without noticing them.
I think this is really nicely written, i enjoyed reading it (which is to say it flowed well, im not saying i enjoy reading poems about people getting ignored and made to feel like they dont matter, because everyone matters.) I hope that made sense.
