The Living Ghost
A little, delicate figure stands in the corner
Her delicate face wrapped in her pale hands
She looks up
Her sorrowful eyes show the pain that she has withheld
She looks around the room
Helplessly trying to find her way through the tangled mess of bodies
These bodies…
The bodies that just see through her
Like she is nothing
Like she is invisible…
She screams for help so very loudly
Yelling for help
Escape from this living hell
She screams and screams until she finally gasps for breath
But no one hears her screams
No one comes to help
Her voice is engulfed by the voices of these other bodies
As they isolate her
For she is a trapped soul
Confused and lost
Still trying to find her place in this wretched world
Where does she fit in?
She is still yet to find out
But she does not know something yet...
One important crucial fact…
That she is lost in the most important stage of her life
But that she need not worry
She will eventually find what she desires
But who is she?
She is one of many lost souls in this world…
She is a living ghost

There is one important thing that I have learned in life... that your hardest times will often lead to your greatest moments. Everyone in this world has felt lost at one point in their life. Therefore, everyone has been "the living ghost." However, all of us are capable of finding that strength inside of us to bring us back to life. To exit that phase of being the "living ghost." To find true joy and purpose in life.
