Remember the day you got out and told me everything was going to be okay? It wasn't. It didn't get better. Your getting out brought more problems than any of us ever thought possible. We're prisoners in this system and you, John, still are, no matter what you think. You can't safely leave this life behind or let it go. Even the Boogeyman can't escape it. Escape from this world, but remember, it will catch up with you and pull you back into the black hole from which you crawled so hard.

How long, John, are you going to pretend that this is over? It will never be over. You're a part of it and it's a part of you. Become. Forever. John, you can't run away from the past as if it never happened. You and I will never be free, no matter what the promises are.

I'll be seeing you, John.
