Monster Mind
October 15, 2014
Don’t you understand?
Can’t you hear?
Can’t you see?
I’m not crazy,
They are real.
They are there.
Their voices,
Whispering,
Yelling,
Telling me what to do.
They sit and look me dead in the eye.
Watching my every move.
Their faces are dark.
Their looks are terrorizing.
Stuck in my head,
Not able to forget.
But you don’t understand.
You can’t hear.
You can’t see.
These monsters aren't hiding under my bed,
But in my head.

So true. Sadly, it is. They aren't hiding under your bed, but in your head. :/ But there's still hope, and you can still keep fighting the monsters. There's always hope, so keep hoping., my friend. Please, never give up and keep writing. I look forward to reading, more of your writings. :) You really do have such an amazing talent and greatness and light in you. You are amazing. Never believe anyone, who tells you otherwise. Because it's so true. Thank you so much, for sharing this, my friend! Stay strong. :)
This is how it truly goes.
