When I was born, my parents did not know. I was a fleeting thought, that they let slip by. I must be invisible I came to imagine. I am a ghost that walks amongst the shadows, seldom seen but always felt. People claim to have caught a glimpse, yet never do they say hello. They can walk right through me, blinded by greedy self-worth and never be any wiser. "Open your eyes!" I would often shout, yet they could not see me and became only more fearful of the world around them. I suppose I must accept my fate. I am indeed invisible. I am a ghost.

Ah but alas I am seen by a true friend. Her heart as pure as gold, bursting with imagination. Uncorrupted by the world around, she brings peace and tranquility to this once lonesome ghost.

(she also brings balloons:D)

I write sometimes when I'm bored. And guess what? Last night one of your ballons popped but I managed to somehow not even hear it. I just woke up and there is this sad little thing lying in pieces like two feet from my head...
