Abandoned
No day goes by without the constant scratching on the walls.
Scritch.
Scritch.
Scratch.
I know most don’t enjoy it...but it’s all I have.
Keeps me from going insane you know.
It’s quite funny actually.
I find myself scratching on the wall as well.
Especially on the nights they come back.
I try to drive them away, but all they do is laugh.
Laugh.
Laugh!
Like my life is some joke to them.
I never wanted to be born!
No one does.
Yet...they keep picking on me.
Me.
I just want to live.
I just wanna live!
Why don’t they just let me live?!!!
Please!!
Make them go away!
Make them go away...
