Invisible

What is one word that describes you?

I like doing things for others, but I don’t need them to know it is me. I don’t like to be put on the spot where people can cheer or point fingers.

I work behind the scenes, and I am satisfied when things go well to know I helped to do that.

I am here and good at what I do, but don’t put me in the limelight. Reward me but quietly. Acknowledge me, but personally. I don’t like eyes on me.

I like fame, but no one  needs to know who I am.

People have pushed me into the background, ignoring me, and I got used to it. I made it an art form, and I  learned to live with it and enjoy it.

When others are pushed ahead and all eyes are on them, I continue to work until I exceed the famous and I leave them in my dust. They look around in awe, wondering how I got so much.

My answer is always the same; invisibility is power.
