The day I had met you. We were nothing but kids, Your hand in mine as we ran through fields of flowers without a worry in the world.
(PRESENT DAY)
I wake up in my bed, tired as always. I fight the urge to fall right back to sleep and sit up on my bed. My eyes look toward the window, It's covered by a curtain but a streak of light finds its way through a crack of the curtain. I push my blanket off and walk towards the window, I reach to grab the curtain in my hands and I slowly push it open. It's revealing a world of light. My eyes twitch slightly and adjust to the light, I stare out in the window where I can see a field of flowers that had freshly bloomed. A memory flashes through my mind and I feel like I could smile... but that thought quickly vanished as I remembered more. I immediately shut the curtain once again and sit on the edge of my bed, staring at the once again covered window. My mind becomes overwhelmed with thoughts of the past and it takes me back to the days where she was there... I put my head in my hand and try to push all those memories away, I keep thinking of all the times with her. My head starts to hurt and I feel my eyes start to feel like they're going to start letting tears fall, I don't want to remember any of it but a part of me wants them to happen again. I want to go back to time when me and her spent time together with no one in the way.
It takes me what feels like hours to finally calm myself down, but even then... I never really do feel better.Right now, I find myself in the dining room sat at the head of the table, no one's there, there never really was anyone there in the first place.
I start to escape into my mind and start day dreaming, my eyes close and immediately open again, instead of the dining room, I am welcomed to the sight of an empty abyss... the sky was nothing but plain white... the floor was white clouds and there was nothing else. My eyes dart around but nothing is there, I turn around with the same results. Nothing.
As I sigh and rub my eyes I hear a voice echo behind me, "Vanity.." a ghostly but familiar voice fills my ears and my eyes widen as I quickly turn around and see her... my surprise continues to grow and I fumble for words, "E-Elizabeth...?" My voice quiet and shaky, my whole body feels like it trembling. She looks at me and nods, but I'm hesitant to really believe it's her, "No... it can't be you.. you.. you're lying..!" My voice raised slightly and it cracks. She continues to only stare at me before her lips curl into a mocking smile and she chuckles at my words, "But it is me. Don't you remember your old friend...Vanity?"
