I am myself
Poems
Jul 2013
Monster in me
I look at this monster
One of your creation
Am I the only one
The lonely one
In this lonely nation
You bottled my sadness
Captured my tears in a glass
Held fears at bay
Brought a smile to my face
All my unhappiness had passed
Until that moment
My bliss had a limit
You stole my bar
And raised it
To beyond infinite
Before you I was a mess
I was pitiful
A runt in the litter
Unloved and insecure
Cast out and critical
Then you swooped me up
Never let me down
You cradled my hand
Warmed my heart
Your love was my angelic crown
I became soft
My hard shell melts
How was I to know
That you would send me
Straight to hell
It burns here now
Take me from this place
This pain kills me
I would die
If only I could feel your embrace
You take me to new highs
Send me crashing to new lows
So I love you from a distance
Safe and protected
In my cloak of shadows
You never fall out of love
But what I feel for you has changed
You abused my love
Tried to take yours back
So my feelings will never be the same
Cry for me
Lie to my face
Wither up and die without me
What I wanted you wouldn't give
So in this world I will find a new place
