Where are you?

I looked in your eyes but you weren't there

you were in a different world

only partly existing in this world

all of a sudden the person you were was gone

all your smiles were wiped away like dust

all your laughs disappeared to only an echo

Where have you gone?

you used to talk to me and greet me with a "hello"

now you don't even realize I'm in the same room

you used to make eye contact with people

now your eyes dance around wildly never staying in one spot

your face is blank and emotionless

I see nothing in your eyes anymore

you used to be social and have conversations

now you ramble about whatever comes to your mind

Who are you talking to?

You are talking to no one the rest of us can hear or see

deep in conversation with your voices in your head

You used to have it all together

now you are so drugged up that you can hardly walk or talk

I tried to reach you and pull you back to reality

but you didn't even hear me speak

it breaks my heart to see you like this

you were such a great person and I don't understand

why this had to happen to you

and why the person you were before had to disappear

you didn't deserve this and it seems so unfair to me

that you have been pulled from this world

to the other world inside of your head

it's almost like who you were before died

and every time I think about this I cry

Where are you?

I would lose myself to find you again....
