**I've started talking to the insects crawling along the bedroom floor.** They scuttle away when there's nothing to say, but I still talk some more. **I find myself conversing with the paint on these four walls.** They stare back at me without expression, but I continue much like before. **I text myself inside my head at night before I close my eyes**. I find that these conversations can get lonely sometimes; atleast I get replies.

Insects, walls, and late night texting
**I've started talking to the insects crawling along the bedroom floor.** They scuttle away when there's nothing to say, but I still talk some more. **I find myself conversing with the paint on these four walls.** They stare back at me without expression, but I continue much like before. **I text myself inside my head at night before I close my eyes**. I find that these conversations can get lonely sometimes; atleast I get replies.
I woke up this morning to find an insect on my bed. I reprimanded it for being there, and dropped it off outside. I forgot to say goodbye.
