A/N: I was originally going to make this into an animation but I haven't yet and I probably will in the future, but for now I'm just gonna turn it into a fanfic.
Dan's POV

Sometimes when I get nervous, it gets hard to breathe.
Sometimes when I get sad, I can't think or even get out of bed in the morning.
Sometimes when I get stressed, I shut down.
And sometimes when I get mad, I want to hurt someone.
But always when I get nervous I'm able to breathe again.
Always when I'm sad I can think again and get out of bed.
Always when I'm stressed I can come back into reality.
And sometimes when I'm mad, I can restrain myself. Sometimes.
The reason I feel better is because of my Dan.
He's always there.
Always watching.
Always listening.
Always right behind me.
It doesn't bother me. In fact, I like it.
I like it so much, that I never want him to leave.
So I put him on a leash.
Now he'll always be with me even if he wants to leave.
I drag him around behind me wherever I go.
Because without him...
I'm not safe.
I'm not safe to myself.
I'm not safe to others.
When I feel the need to hurt myself, he comforts me.
When I get the urge to hurt others, he stops me.
Without him...
I would be lost.
That's why,
no matter how much he begs.
No matter how much he struggles.
I'll never let him off his leash.
I know someday I'll give in.
But until then.
He's mine.
He's my Dan.
*************************************************
Today
I'm not feeling nervous.
I'm not feeling sad.
I'm not feeling stressed.
I'm not feeling mad.
But I am feeling loss.
I am feeling betrayal.
I am feeling lonely.
I am feeling scared.
He left me.
He's gone.
The worst part is...
I let him.
I let him leave.
I let him go.
No.
He chose to leave.
He chose to go.
Just because I let him.
Doesn't me he had to listen.
Now I'm alone here.
In this hospital for souls.
They say I'm unstable.
They say I'm insane.
But who needs 'em.
After all...
All the best people are crazy.
