the night sky

so bright so beautiful

the stars so bright

against the night

no secrets no lies

then shadows follow me

i run

i try so hard to escape

it's grasp

a looming shape

behind me

i gasp

a cold moment

paralyzed in shock

happened in an instant

a voice shattered the ice

i scream

until i cannot breathe

dark passengers

right then and there

i had truly tasted

the voices of monsters

trapped in a snare

of caged pain

and painful blame

the monsters extinguished my dying flame

then blood will pour and stain

a tainted mark

upon my heart

engraved within my soul

and unforgotten in my head

monster hide under my bed

blood will taint those empty wrists

paint those clenched fists

flow out of empty eyes

fill up with endless lies

feed on helpless cries

memories that taint every moment,

every person i see.

i trust nobody.

if you could see the haunting days

monstrous nights

triggering words

insecure thoughts

you would scream

and hope to never see daylight

so do not say

that i'm the monster

do not misunderstand

if you do not know

do not ask

if you do not like the answers

do not speak

if you do not know what to say

don't try to comfort me

i'm beyond help

never asked for it

never wanted it

never asked you to sympathize

you do not know anything about me

so don't try

leave me be

and kill your stupid curiosity

because no one can understand me

i am the sky

not that you can see

and you must beware

i am a forest

i am a bear

and talking to me

will make you regret coming here

do not ask questions

do not talk

you don't know anything

about me

so please just

SHHH.
