There's a monster inside me
lurking behind my lungs
Clawing it's way through my chest
It means to devour my heart
I'll curl up in my ball of insecure
try to pretend it isn't there
and block out the screams that I know aren't real
They tell me to take deep breaths
[They make it sound so easy]
I want to poke holes in their careful facades
make them face who I really am
I am damaged and hollow
Author notes
I really have no idea where this came from.
But this is how I've been feeling lately.
Like something is trying to claw it's way out of me.
What was your favorite part? Your least favorite part?
