Me and My Monster

by Curing the Comon Cliche   Apr 5, 2008


Say that life
Is unkind
___________________________Silent screams
___________________________From quiet minds

___________________________Dry up tears
___________________________You'd never cry
Beautiful smile
___________________________Beautiful lie

___________________________Animal inside you
_________________________Comes out when your numb
___________________________If I am freed
___________________________What will you become?

Trying to break?
___________________________Defenses destroyed
___________________________Look in your eyes
Emotionally unemployed

___________________________Doesn't it scare you?
___________________________The empty-eye sight
___________________________Nightmare eyes
___________________________Wakes you up at night

What happened? What happened!
___________________________It's a hard mistake
___________________________Animal inside your chest
_______________________Can you feel your heart break?

___________________________Broken angel
___________________________Pitch black dove
___________________________Hurt the ones
___________________________You've come to love

___________________________You can't win this battle
I can win this war
___________________________The ones that you love
___________________________They won't love you more

As long as she's happy
___________________________Is it just a crush?
As long as shes happy!
___________________________She never even blushed

______________________You think that it changed things?
___________________________She won't love you
___________________________You don't deserve her
___________________________Nothing you can do

A chance, maybe-
___________________________You're not even close
___________________________She's intoxicating
__________________________You took a paralyzing dose

Go away
I don't care
___________________________I have something
No!_________________________To say

___________________________I know what your thinking
___________________________I'm in your mind
___________________________Her eyes are open
___________________________They say love is blind

But she knows-
___________________________Words were spoken
But she cares-
___________________________You're still broken

___________________________I'm the cold
___________________________Inside your chest
___________________________Broken, beating
___________________________And suppressed

Please leave
Please no more
___________________________Have you ever wondered?
________________________What's behind the closet door

___________________________Look into the mirror
___________________________The dark inside your eyes
___________________________It's the same darkness
___________________________Under your bed it hides

Go, just go!
Just fade away
___________________________Darkness doesn't fade
___________________________Till the light of day

___________________________But that light won't come
___________________________She won't like you back
_______________________Prepare for waves of numbness
___________________________Another cold attack

___Story of a monster
___Lives inside your chest
___Screams you don't deserve her
___Even at your best

...Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win. ~ Stephen King

    This scared the hell(o) out of me jesse. i'm not even kidding. i'm almost crying. lol. it sounds like...like an argument, with yourself, but with some outside force too..

    Beautiful smile
    Beautiful lie

    ^ it is a lovely lie..isn't it?

    You can't win this battle
    I can win this war
    The ones that you love
    They won't love you more

    ^ they say love can't be a one way street...they're wrong. you can love and have it never returned..i know how it is to love and not recieve..

    A chance, maybe-
    You're not even close
    She's intoxicating
    You took a paralyzing dose

    ^ absolutely my favorite stanza of the day...wow.

    I'm the cold
    Inside your chest
    Broken, beating
    And suppressed

    ^ just proves a broken heart can still beat..

    Look into the mirror
    The dark inside your eyes
    It's the same darkness
    Under your bed it hides

    ^ scariest flipping stanza..like...ever.

    Story of a monster
    Lives inside your chest
    Screams you don't deserve her
    Even at your best

    ^ you're wrong, you know...you won't believe me. but you're wrong.

    great job, jesse...5/5
