The People Upstairs

"They come by darkness, usually in the early morning hours. Sometimes they wake you, and force you to ask if they were real. Sometimes they let you sleep, but leave you unsettled in the daylight. But they do exist, in some far-flung corner of your subconscious. Some have the simple innocence of youth, naive and idealistic. But some have forsaken that guise for a darker view. You created them, from a seed of thought. They are not like you, but they are you, the part of you that never shows in the living quarters of your existence. They are the people upstairs."
