Ghost

She is a ghost in their eyes,
Barely noticed, barely there.
They’ve long forgotten her
With no idea where she is.

She cries in the silent hours
Of the night, wishing someone
Would find her, take pity on her
Free her from this hellish nightmare.

Her body is still hidden in the wall,
Too distant for her to return to
Stuck in a land between the living
And the dead with resolution.

She wonders why she was
Doomed with a fate like this.
Did she do something wrong
Or was she just taken advantage of?

She tries to talk to the living
Who ignore every sign she
Sends, getting angrier and
Angrier until they leave.

The lonely ghost knows they
Will forget her memory soon
And she wonders why she is
Barely noticed, barely there.
