Invisible Friend Poem by RACHEL ZARANTONELLO

Have you ever taken just a moment
to notice her, there?
Without a single thought for her,
Constant worries, noone cares.
Quietly, she sits in the corner.
Will you miss her, or take time to mourn her?
She tries to make you smile,
When nothing seems to go your way.
She makes you feel important.
Yet, YOU are the highlight of her day
She helps whoever needs her,
A sad friend, or one in despair
But, do YOU ever hear her?
Can you see her? Is she there?
NOONE takes time to see her
She's been there, all the time
Have you heard the words SHE hears?
So very often unkind.
She locks them in her memory,
So noone can see
Hoping someday you'll notice her.
And find where you should always be
