hello?
knock, knock...
it\'s been a while, hasn\'t it?
though it felt like forever,
I was here all along,
hiding in the cavity
of your heart.
you cannot fight me,
I\'m much to powerful!
I dangle your pride above your head
so close-
yet out of reach.
I am the shame
in your subconscious,
the nightmare you forgot,
the omen on your path,
the words you couldn\'t make
yourself say.
I am the sugar in your coffee,
the rainbow against clouds,
the fat face of a newborn.
you never wanted kids,
so why are you crying?
because he won\'t give you any?
I tore through your aorta,
and slammed your head into the mirror
because you refused to
stare back.
no amount of scars can free you
from this skin,
but perhaps we\'re safer that way.
you\'re weak inside.
human.
I really am the mammal
beneath the monster.
