Missing

Amelia had an end-of-school leaving party tonight. Once she was all dressed and ready to leave, I took some photos of her. I then took a photo of Tom with her, and he took one of me with Amelia.

I looked back at the photos later, and came across the one he took of me.

I look awful.

I’ve never seen me looking so unhappy, even though I’m smiling. I look drained, emotionless and nothing like I used to look at all. My eyes are empty, and my spirit is missing.

Where have I gone?
