Being Followed

Let me tell you my story, since I have nobody else to talk to.

I know it's not the most sinister, or even creepy story, but regardless, it is all true. It is the story of what I have been through in the last few, terrible months.

You see, the thing is, for quite a while already, I had began to think I was getting paranoid. Very paranoid, not just a little. I have the feeling that people are following me, and they are getting more every day. I get the feeling they want to know everything about me, every last little detail. I have already tried to make my life as boring as possible in an effort to make them loose interest, but it seems to have the opposite effect.

I know that the number of people that spy on me grows larger each and every day. They are everywhere now, and I really...I don't know what to do any more. No matter where I hide, they find me, so quickly. It's horrifying. You know, at first, I thought it was all in my head. But not now. Now I have proof.

I can't deny it any longer. There are literally thousands following me. Thousands! Every waking hour, and perhaps even while I sleep, they are there, lurking in the shadows, waiting to pry every last secret from my mind.

What could I have possibly done to deserve this? Am I being punished for the sins of another life? All I want is a peaceful night of sleep, but they will never, ever leave me alone. They have even started to send me little messages, demanding more information, demanding that I lay open my very soul to them. Demanding more and more and more!

While I sat here and writing this, I realized that I have finally hit the end of the road. There is only one thing left I can do.

Only one way out.

I have already written a short farewell note, explaining my final act to those that are left behind. Especially to my friends, all those who have stuck with me through good and bad times. They deserve an explanation for why I would do this.

I am simply too afraid to loose my sanity. I can't stand this pressure any longer.

I will end it all, and then they can't follow me any more. Nobody can ever follow me again!

I will finally have my peace back.

Tonight is the night.

The night I finally delete my Twitter account.
