I INVITED DARKNESS IN MY LIFE

I INVITED DARKNESS IN MY LIFE

I don’t know when it all started. Maybe it was the day I went looking for quick answers instead of praying. Maybe it was the night I sat with an old woman who promised me luck but never told me the price. All I know is that I welcomed something into my life, and now it will never leave me.

At first, everything felt good. My money flowed, my plans worked, and people respected me. I thought I was winning. But behind my blessings, something else was waiting. At night, I began to hear whispers—low, soft, almost like a lullaby. Sometimes it was my name being called, other times it was just laughter that only I could hear.

Then came the shadows. They didn’t stay outside. They followed me into my room, sat on my bed, and watched me sleep. I would wake up and feel them breathing on my neck, heavy and cold, like the air in a grave.

One night, I saw it clearly. A huge figure crouched in the corner of my room. It didn’t move, it didn’t blink, it only stared. I should have run, but I couldn’t. My body was frozen, and my soul knew the truth: this was what I had invited.

Since that night, my life has not been the same. My family doesn’t visit me anymore. My friends left me. They say I am different, they say I carry something evil. And maybe they are right. Because no matter where I go, the darkness follows.

I wanted success. I wanted power. Now I sleep with fear, and I wake with guilt. The old woman told me half the story, but she never told me that the spirits don’t leave once they taste your life.

I am writing this as a warning. Never rush for blessings you don’t understand. Because the devil does not give—he only lends, and when he comes back, he comes for everything.
