Speak in honesty! Speak in truth!
I try.
What do I have to prove and why to you?
You nameless monster with your empty threats!
That alI I am might ever be worth it.
I make myself small. I close my eyes tight.
I wait for the darkness to make things right.
Count seconds behind cool, dark lids that hide,
as I wait for the monster to subside.
