to think, i thought that i was finally happy; that maybe i was getting better at dealing with the world around me. turns out, it was all a lie, a façade that instantly fell away the moment you returned. my life flipped upside down, melted to mush, and faded away as i entered your arms. the song i was supposed to know, wasn't there. the halls, the walls, the streets i should have been familiar with, felt like strangers. the plants and creatures i could have welcomed, seemed to me to be a disguise for the monster inside. this home never felt like home to me.

things maybe look pretty on the outide, but horror may be waiting on the inside.
