"Who's there?" My voice seemed tiny among the dead branches in the woods. I had no light to guide myself by. My breath came in shaky whispers as I stumbled towards a distant light.
This is something I wrote from long, long time ago, while I was a high school student, doing a assignment for one of English class.

#halloweenparty #ghost I don't want to be the ghost no more, Haunting round for something that is unlikely to happen.
I'm haunted by you; Everywhere I go I see you In the crowd, Always a little Too far away To catch up to, But then I realise it Can't be you.

I watch her from a distance. She does not look back. I call out her name. She does not call back. I reach for her hand. She does not reach back. I watch her from a distance. She looks back at him.

---Part 3. Thanks for the encouraging comments on parts 1 and 2. Tell me what you think of the next instalment?:)--- I couldn't put into words what I felt.
In my house I have nothing at all. But a spectral apparition in my hall. She stands alone just floating there. With silvery moonbeams in her hair. Sometimes I just stand and stare.
