Mommy said there was no such thing
as the Monster
When I was scared
she tucked me in
and kissed my cheek
and told me
"it's all just a nightmare"
But some days
I see the marks
the monster left her
Purple and Blue
Yellow and Black
the colors of the saddest rainbow
Sometimes at night, the monster gets her
and in the morning
she makes splashes
in her coffee
Mommy protects me
The monster never comes
to get me
But one day
Mommy was on the ground
and she didn't move
and the monster stood over her
a ****** knife in his hand
glinting like his silver
wedding band
