Let me go.
I need to run–
from this Earth.
It has consumed me alive,
snatched my heartbeats,
for the crime of still breathing.
I need to reach my home.
I am a monster
feeding on pain and misery of others;
and people hate monsters.
I ruin their days.
They don't keep me in their rooms.
I darken their places and moods.
Their gazes haunt me
with the truth
of being not human.
A monster is all they saw.
They seized my future,
'cause monsters don't have one.
"I don't belong here",
is what they say.
I am a bad monster.
If I escape to the world of monsters,
will souls there accept me,
keep me in their rooms,
and call me friend at last?
Will I finally belong?
I need to run–
to my own world.
I don't know which door would take me there.
Does anyone know the way?
Can anyone get me to my home?
