Monsters Are Real
Full of pain from my past I can’t let go
My futures unwritten, so how is it I already know?
Hurting all the time but no one knows
How lost I feel how bad I wish I could go
Leave this place for somewhere that’s way beyond here
The place I created where the monster aren’t real
No more pain my fate my own
Monsters be damned I reclaim my soul.
On the outside I wear a smile for all to see
But if any one took the time
Took the time to really look,
Then they would see the real me
Beaten, bruised, and broken beyond repair
Who wants to fix this little girls world
Who really gives a damn?
You say I’m a survivor but I feel like I’m dead inside
My life I’m livin is not my own
But the remnants of a frighten child,
A frightened little girl who chose not to live life,
But rather lock it all away
And put on the perfect disguise.
So now I look in the mirror at the reflection staring back at me,
Unsure or unclear of this person standing there,
The person who I now see.
Do I want to be a statistic, a victim;
A creation of someone else’s deeds?
Will I find the strength to overcome my pain?
Or continue to give the monsters the upper hand?
I’m drowning, cant breathe, I’m loosing the battle
To maintain the perfect smile.
My biggest fear is one day ill loose the fight
And then everyone will know.
They will see right through my years of pretending,
the horror I’ve locked deep inside me,
no longer hidden , then who’s going to love me?
I was used and abused,
Thrown away like yesterdays trash.
Nothing left to give,
Sentenced to eternal nightmares,
Monsters who smile, even said I LOVE YOU,
This is the only way i knew to live.
For me the absurd has become the norm,
And the extreme a daily routine
I never learned to expect any different
For me this was all there is.
Why should I
Why would I
How could I
Expect anything to change?
All I have ever known is lies, deceit, deception, and pain.
So what makes me think I deserve any better?
What would make me think it could change?
For me the outcome has always been the same!
But then he came along, my dark prince; and I felt like he would be the one
The one to take away all the hurt, so I gave to him all that I was,
And this was something I’ve NEVER done.
I told him all my horrible secrets, I guess
Hoping the damage would some how be undone,
I felt like I could trust him , I felt like he was the ONE!
Now I’m scared the signs are all there,
Just like they were before.
I wanna be wrong, so do I close my eyes
God I hope I’m wrong......
Is it in my head, am I looking for more
More then there really is,
Do I just pretend that none of its real,
Or is this my reality?
I hope it’s just me being paranoid,
Because for me this is my last chance
To give up my past move on with my life,
And finally have some happiness!
I have nothing more I have given him MY ALL
EVERY bit of LOVE I had left,
So I pray I was right, that he’s is my Dark Prince,
Come to give me Love, and a new Life.
For me this time I felt like it was all or nothing
So I decided I was in
That’s why I gave so much and showed him my hand
In hopes that this time I’d win.
But I’m scared now I feel him slipping away from me,
When I put my trust in others, they just end up hurting me.
Why should he be any different?
Why couldn’t I just let it be?
Why open up and give him my all
Put myself in that position
To be hurt once more,
GOD I wanna scream.
