I am Invisible

Today I realized that I am invisible. 

What a realization this is to me, when all my life has been on a make shift stage of glory. 

Today I realized that I am invisible. 

What must I do to be seen, when I walk around and my fingertips disappear so effortlessly.

Today I realized that I am invisible. 

This daily longing to be recognized for who I am and not what others see, weighs me down to the point of buckling knees. 

Today I realized that I am invisible. 

Years I have spent willing to bend, willing to reveal, willing to compromise, all in the hopes of being seen and wanted. 

But today I realized I am still invisible. 

And as I walk around effortlessly, there is one who reaches out and the cloak drops to my feet. 

For today I am no longer invisible.

Because He has removed the deception from me.
