The darkness is all too real
As the monsters grip my bones and make my skin peel
My throat catches and I cannot breathe
I cannot make my monsters leave
They kiss my pain and set my fears free
They will not let me be
The stars shine brightly upon my cheeks
As rivers of tears run to my feet
I dare not wipe them away
For my fear that the pain would stay
To end the connection would surely keep
My fears and misery inside me
