Incredibly Invisible
A poem about selective mutism
Invisibility was her natural superpower
She could do it every minute and every hour
She could miraculously hide herself away
She had absolutely nothing to say
Her mind had the words ready in a crowd
But her voice could never be heard aloud
Nobody could see her stare
Because she wasn’t really there
She could dress in red or green
And she wouldn’t actually be seen
She could do whatever she pleased
Nobody would notice if she sneezed
She could even take things and leave
But people wouldn’t in the slightest perceive
The signs that she had been present at all
Even if she suffered a terrible fall
But she is free now, happy and strong
The things she does usually never go wrong
Because invisibility is her incredible superpower
And she is proud of it like a radiant sunflower!
