Invisible Is A Lonely Word Poem by John A'Hern

Invisible a lonely word
Through your life, term is used,
Decisions made so absurd.
Casual stance you cannot win
We are here, just say the words,
Clothes we wear give the clues.
We have feelings that may not show
Now just waiting for snow,
Quirky smile passes our lips,
On with life and its twists.
Chubby Checker do your stuff
The World still turns it can be rough,
Never say enough is enough,
Walk tall, look, but do not fall.
Sitting quietly in a bar
On your own as, always,
Thinking through the day just gone
You turn and catch a glance
Look again as in a trance
Eyes so dark are staring back.
A smile so bright your heart it misses a beat
Needing help, she comes this way,
She sits as if always known,
Lost for words, keep on track.
Words exchanged, a voice of an angel
Sailors once talked of sirens this way,
One is sitting next to you.
A hand touches yours
Is it a mistake, the eyes say not?
Invisible clothes are brushed away,
Names exchanged, leave together.
Night air is so embracing
The help you needed is walking beside you.
