Look in the mirror and see what you have become.
Scars riddle your body,
anger fills your heart,
a fake coy smile stretches across your pale tired face.
Your skin clings to your bones,
you are hurting and in need,
but people only see what they want.
A Monster.
Hurling paragraphs of hate for not being open.
Stabbing you in the back for wanting space.
Abandoning you because in their eyes you are nothing more than a burden.
They question why an apology is never given.
But why should i apologize for the monster i have become?
No one ever apologized for making me this way...

Love the last two lines!
Yep, the world doesnt look too kindly on monsters does it? Adolf Hitler, Idi Amin, Josef Stalin etc.
Are you really such a monster? They were real monsters and didnt look for excuses.
So just what are you? Other than a good poet who writes provocative verse.
Good writing.
