Monster

My reflection So frightening at times For I don’t recognize Who I am seeing In the mirror A monster Seething with rage Who wants vengeanace Created by my King Who ruled unjustly Causing me to revolt In an angry fury Inner torment Stiring within My desire to be loved Conflicting with my need To protect myself from your venom Refusing to be a casualty Of your manipulation any longer My naivety dwindled As my pain intensified The smell of death around me Caused my love for you to turn sour An iron gate surrounds my heart So in my weakness You can’t penetrate through my vulnerability Scarring me further Making this beast grow more diabolical Than it already is
