Monster in a Puppet
Do you see me?
Am I…real?
The clouds of Shadows
Overwhelm the Medicine
As the years go by
I try to heal...
Am I trapped?
Is this the reality?
The one I have heard about-
The coated paint,
That has finally washed away
Along with morality…
Is it just me?
Do you see what I see?
The lies contaminating,
Our minds,
But we wash the remaining lies,
Into the Black Sea.
Are you still here?
Can you hear me clearly?
The monstrous shadow
Overwhelming your insides
As blood drips,
Deeply coating your eyes…
But still-
Do you see me...?
Am I real enough-
To be held,
Or I just a Monster in a puppet,
Trying to hold onto my dream…?
