Monster

In the morning Sun, it growls.

In the evening moon, it screams,

for people like us never hear the precious silence, not even in our dreams.

we never get relief, only those brief moments between the screams. Our hands became calloused  years ago, our entire lives spent holding the cage shut,the unbearable weight,this cold fear, no one will ever accept you, no one will ever understand. 

Then one day it breaks free, I'm so sorry, I just needed a moment to breathe !

she looks up at you with her innocent eyes

my god.....what have I done?

MONSTER! she cries. 

No apology can take back what happened

and no one can get you out.

Hurry before they get you, put the gun in your mouth

I let down my lover, I let down my friends.

I'm so sorry mom and dad, but this is how it ends.

the darkness is finally coming

and lady death sings to me 

Ive wanted this for so long

at least now I can finally breathe

her soft caress  is like heroin

as she gives the gun to me

"shh, ......there there child, your war is over now, you can at last be free"

As she take me in her arms and there, softly caresses me

"you did the best you could my dear, now its time to come with me"

I feel the life leave my body, I see the light leave my eyes

Her beauty is beyond measure, yet her words are not simple but wise

she kisses me and says

it is better to die a monster than spend your life wearing a disguise.
