The Monster
Her senses were heightened,
she was fully aware of the
endless brusies and sores on
her arms.
Her eyes glaze over
as the monster takes
over her body. The monster
takes control over her mind
and emotions.
Life to her seems much better with the monster.
Crawling across the floor to
the mirror lying on the chair.
Blowing off the precious white
powder and starring into the
face of a girl transformed into
a monster.
She screams and throws
the mirror, breaking it,
and shattering it.
She picks up the silvery
shard and slices deep into
her wrist.
She drops the bloody shard
and lays across the bed
and cries herself to sleep
one last time.
