She was enveloped in a veil of familiarity — a warm, almost tangible sensation, reminiscent of something I had once known. She appeared as a ball of light, its edges soft and fuzzy, blurring her true form, yet at her core, there was a hint of someone I had seen before.
The longer you looked, the sharper and more pronounced the edges of her persona became, as if someone had set them firmly upon the page with a fine-liner. She moved away from me, heading towards the upper echelons of an illusory social structure. It was a place I could not touch. There was a space in this world, a league of people, hidden from plain sight. That was her home.
Her face was different, almost unrecognizable. She was a stark reminder that I had lost something along the way. Eventually, time washes over everything. Her existence evaporates, right up until the moment where a chaotic assortment of particles rearranges in a way that is evocative of who she was. What I saw was a shell, a glimpse into a place in time where everything made sense.
