who is longing the monster
chapter 1
its calloused hands demanding more
from the broken body on the floor
its yellowed crooked teeth spitting out the words trapping her in a cage
only later to call her crazy in its outbursts of rage
its poisoned tongue wraps false images around the minds
of the joyful youth who once learned to be kind
the urge to prove the others wrong
is revealed through the monsters malicious song
the empty threats feed off of defeat
desperation the only thing it eats
for whoever is longing the monster so dearly
do not let it fool you as it almost did to me, nearly.
