Monster

I am from darkness

as I sit in my room

hiding myself from the

outside world slowly

losing my sanity

I am from blood

as I scratch at my

bloody wrist I look at the wall

were words of hate are

written in crimson letters

I am from family

as they finally notice my

absence they look for me

crying out my name

I am from tears

as I wish I could reveal

myself to them but can't

wanting nothing more then

to be in there warm embrace

I am from monsters

for if I leave this room

he will awaken and hurt them

for he lies within me

this monster waiting to strike
