Why

I was asked, the other day, why I like to sing so much. At the time I said it was because I love to preform for other people and make them smile. Last night I realized that wasn't the case. I discovered that the only reason I sing is because that is the only time anyone listens to what I have to say. I tried talking to people the last few days, even some of my "friends," but noone was listening. They didn't even hear me. I walk around and nobody sees me. I have scared more than a few people with just standing still til they notced me. No matter what I do knows knows I exist. Until I sing. My voice actually touchs peoples hearts, but that is all that they see of me also. I am just a voice in the wind. Still noone sees me. I am invisable on stage as much as in life. I think that is the real reason I get mad if noone listens. I always thought it was just because that to totally ignor someone trying to sing that it was rude. No, it is because once again I am invisable. That is one reason I love my songs that I don't use a microphone for. It is a shock for them to hear me fill the room and not using a mic for assistance. It grabs attention. I used to think being invisable was great. I could do so much and noone knew. Now that I was people to see me, they don't. It has never matter how skinny I was or how fat I got. If I was slinky clothes or more clothes than a nun. I am invisable, and noone cares.
