Whatever this monster is, whatever nasty thing that chooses to stalk the winding paths and hide in the smallest corner in that dark room. It's trying to do whatever it takes to get you to trust it. Whether that's taking the forms and voices of your loved one, singing your favourite songs, or revealing your deepest insecurites and secrets you have never told anyone.
Sometimes, if you're not careful, the place this monster resides in will change you. You will develop a needless obsession to delve into the depths, go long periods of isolation, and a hunger for destruction.
Stay out of its arms reach and it will vanish.
You ache for a love that wasn't truly there. You ache for a place, a person that is absent. The yearning is strong in your sternum; the stinging rippling across the networks of your elderly frame. It manifests in your skin——nerves pulasting all the same. The person you once were is decaying, and the person you long for is a mere ghost in your memory.
I can help you reclaim that glory. I can help you return to that place buried deep in your mind; remains etched in the core of your being.
Please. Please. Why don't you let me in anymore?
