I ncognito, unseen; thus I remain

N onextant to any who matter

V alueless to all, including myself

I drift, aimless, alone, lonely

S urrounded by people, yet unnoticed

I ndigenous to no tribe, alienated

B lameless by default

L acking importance

E ven my family, my parents, don't see me

M ortality my only hope

E very day I fade a little more
