I Guess We Are All Monsters Inside

Love and forgive often So it is told Peace will soon follow But the mind it still holds Holds onto anger Holds on to the pain Even with a non guilty conscience Wants the forgiven To feel the sting Does it make me a monster that I get pleasures when it is me that he seeks?? Seeks out for company Seeks out for peace He seeks out for the life that used to be He sits all alone nobody around Nobody cares Its his own fault I sometimes wonder how his heart goes on knowing all the chaos inside of mine that it caused Justice never served to a broken little girl I just pretend everything is alright in my own little world Meanwhile crying inside Where the hell was my protection It wasn't supposed to be my fight

Reading this makes me feel as if I know you. A connection through tramatic childhoods where we fought fights while other children laughed and learned love and kindness through example. We were taught to never trust and to eat the pain we were given. To hide behind our (my life is perfect) masks. A 7 for you and well deserved.
