I have not written in so long. Mother found my journal and took it. For days I couldn't shake the feeling that someone else was watching besides Mother. Sometimes I would see a shadow on the wall or hear something move. 

It was probably just my imagination. I know I am insane. My heart pounds constantly and everything sometimes blurs. Hearing the wind rush threw the cracks in the walls doesn't phase me anymore. My hands don't work well. Sometimes I feel my hands burning.

I scream when this happens, but Mother just comes in and slaps me. She tells me I am being ridiculous and need to calm down and shut the hell up. I wish that shadow would help me.

Mother hasn't brought food in a week. She never answers me when I ask her about it. She only looks me intensely in the eyes. That shuts me up. I feel weak and can barely hold this pencil. I know I am losing color in my skin because my arms are a ghostly white. I feel like I am not really here.

I want to break away from this place, but what if outside is worse like Mother said. I would take my chances. Nothing could be worse than this shit of a place. I want someone to break me free of this space.

I feel like a caged animal. I need help.
