fading away



I was there...
right there;
yet I was not there ...

I watched from a distance,
like a faded memory;
watched myself disappear
from the lives of others - 'poof'
as if I had never been.

I was there ...
right there;
in front of them,
yet they could not see -
I was a faded memory
a photo covered with dust
lost in the attic,
amidst the unwanted.

I was there ...
right there;
yet I was not there.
