The Girl Left Behind

Updated: Oct 5, 2024

By Priyasha Gupta



There was subtlety in how the waves overtook me,

And once I was under the spell,

I couldn't stop chasing an incandescent unearthly light.

It lit up my heart.

But it pained my soul.

It gave me life,

While steering me to an abyss.

It drank me,

Until my sobs weren't even my own.

They belonged to the girl with sparkle in her eyes.

And glitter in her hair,

The one with stories to tell,

The girl who was left behind.
