Untaught History

Lost. He only appears in yearbooks, camera rolls, and memory. Authorities want us to believe he has died. Yet, no body was found. There were no leads. No crimes. He was simply missing. I've thought of it a million times during his disappearance. Can someone truly vanish without a trace? I've searched for clues and have been met with nothing but dead ends. I am told to give up daily, but I will not stop. He still exists. He is still alive. I can feel him. He is lost in time.
