what a malevolent world, to allow a monster to roam free.

the one who pounded chaos into my head
and hate into my heart.

the one who drove me to cry until i ran dry,
and made my skin sob streaks of red.

the one who left me with hideous scars,
on my mind and body alike.

the one who made pills fill me to the brim,
until the light around me became dim.

the one who convinced me i was nothing and no one,
that pain was all i had to fall back on.

what a cruel world, to let a monster roam free;
knowing full well that monster is me.
