Monster


We were friends; I truly believed this.

We met in class one day, it was meant to be.

I'd go to your house, and we'd go out to eat.

I'd want to watch a movie, and you'd want to go out.

You'd call me and I'd text you back.

You made me feel special.

We were friends; I wanted to believe this.

We weren't though, were we?

You wanted something from me, something I didn't even know I had.

You invited me to your house that night.

I answered your call.

I arrived innocently and happy to be with you.

We are not friends; I know this now.

We will never be anything, I will make sure of that.

I wasn't safe in your arms anymore; when you asked me to get into position.

I felt in my heart the death of my dream, the truth in your heart.

You just wanted my innocence. 

You are the monster.
