What Isn't there

Summary: Musings of the unknown, and scary possibilities

--------------------------------------------------

    Every night as I lay my head to get some sleep, I would hear creaking sounds, and whispering. I would try to ignore the feeling of something evil glaring at my back or try to forget the images of ghosts and demons from my brain. I try not to look at any reflecting images in fear of seeing a pair of red eyes with sharp teeth smiling at me. I know I'm vulnerable, I know people could be murdered in their sleep despite feeling secure, I know that the killer could still see me under the covers. Whenever a door is slightly ajar, or if I open a closed door, I wonder if there is something sinister waiting within them? 

    My whole entire life I've read horror stories, movies, facts, and everything, only for it to stick with me, haunting me with its suggestive hints that although there are no such things as vampires and werewolves, there is still monsters out there that are of our own race. One's with no emotions, no care for another human life, not caring for any life and only for the thrill of a kill. There are monsters out there that live in the wild, monkeys, Tigers and Bears. People never look to the scary because they are stuck in their own little world filled with gadgets and electronics. They have no thought of what may be lurking in the shadows, of what is going on past the surface.

    Where are the missing people? Is it normal to see the posters in stores, on milk cartons? What is going on with the Bermuda Triangle? Do you think if there is something like that where no one has ever gone before? Do you walk down the street and wonder if the person that passes by you is a potential psychopath? They could fake human emotions. Do you remember hackers? They could get your personal info and go by your house for some fun. Do you read corrupted government books and what they are doing and wonder if your own government is doing the same?

Of course, this sounds paranoid and crazy, but your brain stimulates fear so we could survive the day. Fear makes us go faster, and stronger. Is it that bad to be worrying about these things? You're more vulnerable than you think. You don't think you need to defend yourself every hour of the day, and for most cases you don't. I'm just warning you to be more observant of your surroundings, get off your phones for a while and look around you. Think about these things. You never know when your time is up, and it may not be from natural causes. Crimes committed are getting higher and higher every year that passes. When your time is done, crime may be so high people are expected to be a bit paranoid.

    Have you ever thought, though, that when you do die, you find yourself in the darkness? That your whole life was just a figment of your own imagination? So, in a way, you create the instances of everything that's happening to you? When you die, and before you go where everyone goes when they die, you have to be protected by the very things from your nightmares?
