Sometimes the monsters that we see in our lives aren't necessarily ugly, gory, nor ****** They could have the most sincere-looking smiles; Flowing, golden locks; Bold eyes that almost sparkle they speak about something they're passionate about; Maybe their teeth are so white and straight that anyone would feel insecure about their own; Maybe their hobbies and talents are similar to yours, and you think that there's no other person out there who could be better of a friend than them, who also remembers all the lyrics of that Red Hot Chili Peppers song; They could have cute freckles on their nose, or scars that just make them look that much more awesome to you; Or maybe this person was a huge part of your childhood, and you think they could never abandon you; They could seem like a good person because they volunteer, go to Church, or participate in organizations; Perhaps they're close with your other friends, and there's no way they would pick someone mean to join your group; They could look similarly to any other person in your life, But they have a vile heart; They only became close with you to know all your problems, secrets, goals and dreams, and to crush you from the inside out; They could pretend to be friends with you, only to benefit from it themselves; They'll ask you nicely, then rip you apart; They'll get close with your parents: "Hi Mrs. Ferne, you look lovely today!" And will make your parents wish they were you; They could talk behind your back, and wish for the moment of your downfall to come as quick as possible; They could pick at your insecurities and make you feel bad about yourself, then end it with a "I'm just kidding!" Monsters aren't just in movies; Even the devil was a beautiful angel once.

Monsters
Sometimes the monsters that we see in our lives aren't necessarily ugly, gory, nor ****** They could have the most sincere-looking smiles; Flowing, golden locks; Bold eyes that almost sparkle they speak about something they're passionate about; Maybe their teeth are so white and straight that anyone would feel insecure about their own; Maybe their hobbies and talents are similar to yours, and you think that there's no other person out there who could be better of a friend than them, who also remembers all the lyrics of that Red Hot Chili Peppers song; They could have cute freckles on their nose, or scars that just make them look that much more awesome to you; Or maybe this person was a huge part of your childhood, and you think they could never abandon you; They could seem like a good person because they volunteer, go to Church, or participate in organizations; Perhaps they're close with your other friends, and there's no way they would pick someone mean to join your group; They could look similarly to any other person in your life, But they have a vile heart; They only became close with you to know all your problems, secrets, goals and dreams, and to crush you from the inside out; They could pretend to be friends with you, only to benefit from it themselves; They'll ask you nicely, then rip you apart; They'll get close with your parents: "Hi Mrs. Ferne, you look lovely today!" And will make your parents wish they were you; They could talk behind your back, and wish for the moment of your downfall to come as quick as possible; They could pick at your insecurities and make you feel bad about yourself, then end it with a "I'm just kidding!" Monsters aren't just in movies; Even the devil was a beautiful angel once.
