Monster

Jacob Mead

Why do you insist on hurting yourself more?

Look! You won the battle, you won the war!                                    

But, take a look in the mirror and see, you aren't the man you used to be.

Every time we try to look at what you were before, we just see a soulless husk with an empty core.                            

You lack empathy for it just makes you weaker,                                

and your emotions are pointless to you as it just makes you bleaker.                                                                                        

The scars that run across your body,

shows the people who were hurt because they thought they knew that certain somebody.                                                              

You constantly push us away for it shows how you bleed,            

but to push us away is not the answer, just your family is what you need.                                                                                                

You need a life away from the action, something other than violence to push you forward.                                                            

But, to save you is impossible.                                                          

For you just distance yourself from you old life and to a new life you go toward.                                                                                      

Since, the person we knew is gone and decayed like a fossil.

So, take another look in the mirror and see; your just a monster from the man you used to to be.
