I wasn't supposed to be here, and I'm reminded daily by the shadows that lurk around. I lived my life trying to ignore them and the horrors they tend to bring, but that proved difficult with each passing day. I yearned for a healthy life growing up, I still sometimes do. Some would say what I have is a gift,  sure one I would like to return. It's not fun being able to see the dead, I know television and books make it sound like a goddamn superpower, but I'm here to tell you that it's a fucking  burden.  One that literally sucks all life and energy from you isolates you and keeps you from having simple things in life, like a friend or a family. I hate this curse and all that it brings. It's hard to be happy and alive when you're surrounded by the dead.
