I’ve always tried to be like you.

Even if you weren’t perfect,

You were my only goal.

I would reread your texts,

Looking for something,

That showed that you loved me.

I stood by your side,

When they were against you.

I helped turn the tide,

To gain their trust,

Now I see that they just,

Turned against the both of us.

While I was following your dreams,

I erased my own,

Now, sadly, it seems,

That while I chased your ghosts,

I became one myself,

Invisible, yet unwanted.
