ghostly girl

blindly following
myself along,
time is passing,
ticking strong.

feats of strength
have worn me down,
i'm becoming lesser,
bleeding out.

like a fire,
i'm emitting light,
i'm burning up
while burning bright.

you see, long ago,
i was beating time.
but time is
beating me tonight.

i'm tripping, slipping,
letting go,
my words dissolving,
running slow.

i think i'm hated
by the world,
for who could love
a ghostly girl?
