Ugly Places

My life has taken me to ugly places,
and painful spaces.

The map of my journey is full of rotten,
never forgotten.

Monsters dwell in the corridors of my mind,
forever entwined.

Hideous creeping to drag me to the past,
to deep anguish vast.

My life has taken me to ugly places,
though I changed faces,
still there are traces.
