Across the hall, I see a transparent girl

Drifting along while staring silently at me

No words

No movements

Just silent stares


Her gaze reminds me

Of a time where stress

And fear

And exhaustion ruled

Through her stare


Where my time was spent

Not for myself

Or my mind

But for her

And all her needs


Where my mind was spent

Not on the homework due tomorrow

Or the exciting events that were soon to happen

But on focussing on her state of mind

Which you could see through her stare


In this moment

When I see the transparent girl

Staring back at me

I know that she is simply

A ghost in my life now

Sometimes friendships aren't healthy and you are forced to end them. And that is ok.
