Invisible Me.

I find peace in invisivbility
yet you see, you aren't blind to the physical me
it's the me I see myself to be...that you don't see
stuck between who I'm supposed to be...and supposedly
I find peace in invisibility
because you see
I am visible when I adhere to society
and society's ideology
of propriety
matter of fact thats when I get the notoriety
I try to leave
yet I admit sometimes the notorious me is who I try to be
this notoriety that leads to stress
I rest...in invisibility
step back from the fantasy called reality
I realize that it's easier to travel unseen
invisible in the middle of plain sight
I stand out while the rest move about interchangeably 
I am irony
I do hope you understand the simile
I draw a similitude between invisibility and being unique
similarly i speak plainly although I may sound oblique
I choose to see certain things while other things I neglect
from the outside looking in it's easier to reflect
open your mind's eye and tell me what you see
I choose to be free
and contrary to popular belief
I find relief
in invisibility...
