monsters

There's monsters around,

There really is,

They look just like us,

but they think very differently,

 

the monsters devour everything and anyone I love,

they don't like self pity,

they feed off of fear, anger, and hatrd,

they often have me questioning myself,

 

when I look in the mirror sometimes I start to think,

Do I look like them?

Do I act like them?

Am I starting to become one of them,

 

monsters in an attic or monster in a closest or monsters in a bed,

that's just some made up story to scare people,

but I met real monsters,

I really have,

 

Monsters are Neo-Nazis,

Monsters are communist,

Monsters are serial killers,

Monsters are in every century and every country
