Just when you think the monsters are gone
They come back with a vengeance
Like never before.
They dance in your mind when you're in bed at night
Prancing and frolicking
Waiting or their chance to strike.
When the dancing stops is when their fun begins
They turn on you with those black beady eyes
******* all light from deep within.
They hit so fast it's hard to defend
Scratching and biting
Until there's no way you can contend.
Because you're bleeding and hurting
From their tiny, sharp teeth
Then back to darkness you are reverting.
It's easier to feel when you aren't being eaten alive
From those tiny little things that haunt you on the inside.
