Bodiless Monsters
Can't help but to feel
This gnawing, restless fear
From the past I am unable to heal
As I freeze from every leer
#
Hormones running high
More risks are taken
And it would be a lie
If I said it didn't leave me shaken
#
I don't know what is wrong with me
Unstoppable as I seemed before
This fear just can't let me be
Making me scared of finding out more
#
The fear in me in a tight coil
My heart beating a tempo
My blood might just boil
Stuck between two worlds; limbo
#
The memories uncovered
Leaving me shaking and frail
Crying from all that was discovered
In recovery I must not fail
#
Not in heaven or hell am I living
But amongst mortals like you and l
My pedestal had been crumbling
Leaving me uncovered to the naked eye
#
Feeling more human than I ever felt
Free of expectations, of attention
The memories no more than a welt
I can go back and be a faceless lion
A/N this was inspired by a review left to me by Dinkel who had said disliked poems that didn't rhyme. This poem doesn't make much sense to me, I haven't slept in hours so I am exhausted so yeah. The character is Harry though and if you can't guess what happened then just let me know but I think it is fairly obvious. Also, the title was based off the facts that all children seem to think of monsters as tangible things but most of our demons are born from innate fears and beliefs. So I just let my imagination go with it. Julianne
