~Poem~ The Ugliest Monster

January 20, 2012 ~ 5 Comments

The Ugliest Monster

One crack in the ice

To reveal what’s below

The ugliest monster

Just waiting to show

 

The screaming, the swinging

I don’t even know you

My heart breaks, my mind aches

What do I do?

 

In the blink of an eye

The dark disappears

The innocent smile

Soon reappears

 

Oh, happiest laughter

Please stay for a while

Hold back the monster

Show me the smile

 

The happy times blind me

I wait for the quake

I wait for the monster

His cycle to wake

 

Life, love, and happiness

Will it come around

I hurt and I worry

Will peace be found?

 

Not asked for, but given

My companion from living

No changes, just push on

One day it will be gone

    • I know it’s a little on the dark side, but hopefully it’s general enough that anyone can take it how they think it means, lol. :)
