Invisible Me

Ragen Rogers 1977 (CA)

I was beautiful
Flawless, like a dream
Options were plentiful
Tears were unseen
   I would flaunt it
   My flawless imperfection
   All would want it
  They awed my reflection
In just a few years
I will lose my place
As beauty disappears
Leaving lines on my face
   Age settles in
   Dreams decompose
  The beauty within
  Will be all that shows
Invisible Me
Will go unheard
Though the beautiful me
Was always lost for words
  Time doesn't wait
  Soon everyone will be
  A memory await
  Invisible like me
