~ 𝕷𝖎𝖙𝖙𝖑𝖊 𝕭𝖎𝖗𝖉 ~ You always forget to close your curtains, little bird. You leave the window open just enough for me to watch you breathe. I watch you through the cracks you never think to cover. I know every shiver, every flicker in your eyes when you think you’re alone. You’re never alone. I’ve been closer than you realise - behind you in the crowd, a whisper from the dark. Your scent clings to me. Your voice lives in my head. You made me this way. You fed the obsession with every careless glance, every laugh you threw into the air like it meant nothing. But I’m not nothing. I’m the shadow behind your peace. The monster behind your missing exes. And soon, little bird, you’ll understand… The cage was never yours to avoid. It was mine to close. You belong to me. You just don’t know it yet.
