The Memories

They're coming after me. I try to hide, but they always find me. Even in the darkest 
corner, I'm not safe. The thoughts of what they'd do to me, nearly drive me 
insane. I am not afraid of them, I am terrified of them. I don't know what to do. 
How do I escape them? How do I free myself of them for good? They have found 
a way to tear at my heart. A way to enter my mind. If they find me, I'll be forever 
doomed. I can't allow them, the memories of my past, to break my soul.
