I have decided to shut the world out.  Reality sucks.  I have lost trust in everyone. One person I believed in has just abandoned and betrayed me.  Real people are cruel.  The people in my head do as I say and are there when I need them and leave when I Have  had enough.  They can be models of real people but they are like puppets and do as I say. They don't hurt me like they do in reality.

Whe I was 18 I used to drink out of a baby bottle and thought of someone holding me and comforting me.  I would lie onthe carpet with a flannel blanket to cover me.  This person never hurt me- she just loved me and made contact wit hme as if I was her baby.

My math teacher was God and answered my prayers.

These people are gone now but I can sit in my room by myself all night and think of things that are funny and laugh.  Silly things that make me laugh.  I can therefore be happy when I think of funny things. 

I am safe in my own home at night, awake while the real world is sleeping. I can sleeep whe the real world is out partying.

Far from the madding crowd.  I like that.

I callthis picture The Demonic Dance.
