The Monster Within

Layers upon layers is what I am made of

Layers to hide the monster inside

The monster that corrupts my mind

I am afraid that the monster will get out

Then everyone will see what the monster has done to me

I wear a mask so no one can see the ugliness it has caused

I am a coward can’t you see

Lost in my own paranoia

I’m just a scarred little girl in this disoriented world

Hiding from the monster inside me
