Monsters



Monsters crawl beneath my bed

They hide in my cupboard

They live in my head

 

Hideous creatures who slithers about

In the dark hidden corners

Of perpetual doubt

 

Out of rational reach

They hiss horrible things

And I try to remember

That none of it’s true

That this is not me

These thoughts are not mine

 

But as I look in the mirror

It silently screams

This is you!

This is you!

This is you…

 

In the shadows of sorrow

A creeping thing crawls

Quietly nesting behind

The paper thin walls

Of my mind

 

I wish I could catch it

Before it melts in my brain

But I wonder, what if…

I’m already insane?
