It’s interesting how easily you can allow yourself to fade without a single person noticing. They tell you, “Oh I love you!” one minute. The next the only voices you hear are the whispering giggles of the ghosts all around you. "I know when I’ll go," I tell them. Their giggles increase as they circle the room. "Oh? Do you now?" they mock. "November 5th," I spit into the familiar darkness. Their mocking increases. They don’t trust that I’ll go through with it. That I will honestly throw my soul from it’s cursed shell and allow them to devour it’s remains. They think I’m too scared of where I’ll end up after I die. Why should I be? If I’m anywhere but here I’ll be content.
