Monster.

I hurtMonster

therefore I am

therefore I die.

*

And all the voices all around me

were the voices in my mind.

And all the voices in my mind

rose like smoke from the ground.

Made me weep

turned me blind.

*

And in the stillness of my coma

was the wreck of a broken heart

And in the silence of my eyes

was a sole torn appart

I see love…it swiftly dies.

*

Perhaps I’m too naive

I was always innocent.

Love was always loved.

Hate was just resentment.

Perhaps I’m too naive

I was always innocent.

I learned to hate

through other’s contempt.

I lost my innocence

when I learnt what it meant.

*

I hurt

therefore I am

therefore I die.

*

I always believed that if I loved someone, I’d be able to freely express my feelings.

People hate and fear what they cannot understand, cannot comprehend.

They call it a monster.

I am a monster but take comfort…I’m still loved.
