.......

"Hello, Angel. It's been awile. Don't you remember me? I know you do." "....You...." "What's wrong, you look terrified. Haven't you ever seen a ghost?" "....This isn't real.... This can't be happening.... You're suppose to be dead.... I saw you die...." "Are you sure that what you saw was the truth? Are you sure that you're not the one that died?" "....No.... I'm alive.... I can still feel.... I'm not dead...." "Keep lieing to yourself, and you will never know the truth. God is the only truth. God is the only lie." "....Shut up...." "Angel, you can't keep hiding from yourself. You know he still lives insideof you. Run all you want. Hide all you want. 'The Angel' is still there. You can't escape." "....No.... You're lieing...." Shadowed figure stands beside me, whispers in my ear, "Angel is Angel, but I am me. We are one in the same. You only exist in my mind, you're not real. A fake, a weakling, a lie." Brought to knees, clutching mind, body begins to tremble. "Can you finally see what I'm trying to tell you?" "....Why....?" "The wind is pink, Angel, can't you see it? Can't you feel it? Aren't you alive?" "....I am alive...." "Is that why your wrist continues to bleed, but you neither wince nor scream. Is that why you're standing knee deep in your onw life?" "....Lies....Lies.... They're all lies...." "Don't you remember how much you hurt after I died. You were crying. Don't you remember? It was only yesterday." "....You're not her.... I remember her voice.... I remember her face.... her.... You are not...." The origon of voice begins creeping from shadow. "Is this what you remember?" "....You died.... You died.... The blood that was on my shirt.... It was yours...." "I didn't die, I only abandonded flesh. I'm still alive. You betrayed me." "....N....No.... It.... It can't be...." "Look at you, Angel, you're pathetic. You're worthless. What happened to you? Don't you remember causing all those people to hurt, to bleed?" ".... That wasn't me...." "Don't you remember sending me home in a cab because you were afraid I would have gotten hurt while you fought?" "....That wasn't me...." "Yes it was, Angel. Can't you see what you're doing to yourself? You keep lieing to yourself." "....No.... I'm telling the truth...." "Just do me a favor, and don't stop talking. You remember those words, don't you?" "...." "What's wrong, Angel? You know I'm right, don't you?" "....Who are you....?" "You know who I am. It's me, Lindsey." "...." "Tell me, Angel, do you really want to die that much? Do you know how much it hurt e to see hoe much you hated yourself? Don't you remember how you screamed after I laid my head on your chest? You cut yourself even after you promised me that you wouldn't. Don't you remember the gash you made on yourself?" "...." "Goodbye, I love you."
