I Need To Leave
It's so serene here,
I never want to leave.
The people are kind to me,
It's like turning over a new leaf.
They don't know the truth about me,
I'm not like the girl next door.
I'm actually a liar inside,
That I don't want them to know about.
I hide my past and my true self,
I don't want hurt anyone anymore.
I want close my eyes,
And pretend that the past was all a dream.
This place I now call home,
I know I shouldn't be here.
I'm not an angel like them,
I need to leave before it's too late.
I need to leave before the demon comes,
The demon within my soul.
I need to leave before I hurt anyone,
Cause that's why I ran before.
I want be free,
Free from the dark.
I know I'll never be,
But it's all I am praying for.
Help me please,
I want to be a friend.
I don't want hurt anyone anymore,
I want to be a friend.
I want to be without the fear,
Knowing I can hurt without my will.
I want to be the girl next door,
The one they can trust and love.
But here that is why,
I can't do that at all.
They trust me too much,
And I could hurt them so.
I need to leave right now,
I don't really want to go.
But the demon inside will awake,
And by then it'll be too late.
A poem in Raven's POV about her being afraid of releasing her demonic self. She ran away from something she had done in the past obviously by what she said, and in the new place she's at she's afraid of hurting them with herself and the lies.
