//its 2 am
but then again, when is it never?
Its always 2am when I have these thoughts
but that's not the point//

It's 2 am
And he's back... and caving in
he laughs at me, taunts me.
"Did you really think I'd ever leave?"
I lay here silently.
Letting him consume me.
"I just thought you were sick of my happiness so uh found a new victim"
He roared in amusement, smirk playing on his lips.
"You? Happy? Oh child don't make me laugh"
My fingers fidget and battle with each other as I feel the tears begin to fall.
"Awwww is little Ana gonna cry?"
I lick my lips as they muse and tug on my blanket.
"Just leave me alone, Loneliness"
Did I really want to be alone?
He grunted and sat at the foot of my bed as I watched intently.
"Why do you bother coming back? If I'm not worth company I'm surely not worth loneliness."
Sighing, my eyes found their way to meet the callous ceiling then screwed shut.
"Darling, of course you're not worth loneliness but you are lonely, so it's my job to visit."
He walked around my room letting the familiarity sink in.
"I guess you can be a friend Loneliness."
my lips whispered the words tiredly, hopefully..
He turned to me and snorted in a short chuckle.
"Oh sweet Ana, I beg you not flatter me!"
He kissed my forehead as my mind began to deactivate, letting me drift off to sleep.
