It's not as easy as you think,
To trust someone with all your heart,
Because once you've felt the pain of an ending,
You become too scared to look for a start.

When you have heard countless excuses,
Listened to a thousand alibis,
Youll start to assume that fairytales,
Are only nightmares in disguise.

I spent my childhood escaping,
The monsters underneath my bed,
But I grew up when they moved out,
And started living in my soul instead.
This is a little dark but i think it is one of my best pieces. Thoughts anyone?
