Oct 24

She has written in my book yet again. I suppose just asking her to leave me alone won't be enough. Oh, mother, Jessica, and Rebecca called me today. They wanted to know whether I was at a hotel or back at the Lexington Hospital. I just told them I was at a hotel near there and that they shouldn't visit me for awhile. I don't like lying to them. But it's to protect them. So I guess a little lie isn't too bad. Anyway, I spent the day meditating and trying to distract myself from the lullaby. I was able to keep my focus and maintain my sanity. Then I opened my journal and found the poem. I wanted to react to it, but I just didn't have the energy. Instead, I've been studying it. I think she's trying to speak to me. I think she wants something from me. I don't know for sure, but it's time for me to stop being a coward and face the truth. Tomorrow I'm going to figure this out. Sadly, I'll have to start from the beginning and relive that terrible night.
