Presence by Geistern und Rauschen

Geistern und Rauschen "Presence"

Ash, when I arrived this morning it was very quiet, no birds, no rustling in the trees, no wind, just nothing. I had actually understood it as if someone was there to welcome me, or maybe that was the case but I missed them. The planned séance took place yesterday afternoon, and unlike other times when nothing exciting happens, we all went into a kind of trance state within a short space of time. This was followed by something I can only describe as self-dissolution. I wrote my own name on a piece of paper three times to make sure it was mine, and I constantly checked that the clock on my phone matched the clock in my room. But that was just the beginning. At around 10 p.m. we met in the hallway of the complex because we all heard constant whispering, but each of us on our own. We heard different words, yet always with resignation. Then a presence began to make itself known. Nothing spectacular anymore, a feeling. And with that feeling, everything turned gray. The rooms dissolved. We no longer recognized each other. And then I found myself alone, fading further and further into nothingness.

Ash, I'm alone here. The others have all vanished into thin air. The way back seems longer than before. I don't recommend further contact, even though I know it's no use anyway.

If I don't come back, don't look for me.

Doomstreet boy.
