THE TAKER

One day-
A beautiful day...
She noticed her shadow was missing.

She came to me scared...and we did what we could with what we had...but eventually it took her reflection as well...

We'd stand at the mirror for hours,hoping to catch a glimpse of anything coming back...
It never did.

When she became transparent,and started flickering...I'd lie next to her,and hold her...
At least the parts of her that my hands wouldn't just pass through...

We prayed...

and cried.

Until she faded away...

And I was left embracing the fabric of space and time~
