Mist

Where did it go, the mist that covered the ground.
The mist that clouded her eyes so she couldn’t see
The mist that brought you together.

Where did it go, the mask that shrouded her so
The mask you constantly wore to impress
The mask of pure façade.

Where did it go, the grey, grey clouds
The clouds that kept out the light
The clouds that kept you hidden.

Where did it go, that person you were.
The person you seemed to be
The person everyone knew you to be.

Where did it go, your sanity,
Your drive for perfection,
Your beauty?

Where did it go, washed away
By the sun and the light
The people who left you behind.
