Numb

Anxiety can be sometimes s superpower: it makes you see how many times something can go wrong, so you can think of ways to minimise that risk. That is why when things really go wrong, we’re calm. Almost numb, really. I am not angry, disappointed or sad. My mind is empty of anything. 

Electrified Jellyfish

I once kept a log with descriptions of the ghosts. On that journal I wrote how they were once amorphous shadows and when they were giants gilded with luminescent features. Once I felt that they were getting too close and became sloppy. There was a time when they looked like electrified jellyfish and I wasn’t afraid that night. They knew I was writing a journal and they were not in agreement, so my journal was, one day, lost. I won’t upset the ghosts and start again, as long as all they do is noises.
