Aisha Abdelfatah Poet Prose Poetry

The Worst Monster

A white outline
On the cold grey pavement
Where my body used to lay

You left me there
All alone
To fight by myself
Leaving me to fend off
The monsters
With no means of defence

You left me
To cry
To rot
To die

You left me to mourn
The loss of
My friend
My sister
My soul

You left me by myself
LOST
And I can't find
My way back

I'm left with
THE MONSTERS
But what I didn't know
Until now
Is that you
Are the worst monster of all
