Monsters

It's not as easy as you think, To trust someone with all your heart, Because once you've felt the pain of an ending, You become too scared to look for a start. When you've heard countless excuses, Listened to a thousand alibis, You'll start to assume that fairytales, Are only nightmares in disguise. I spent my childhood escaping, The monsters underneath my bed, But i grew up when they moved out, And started living in my soul instead.
