Monster

The cold of the night strip me naked

Shredding my skin and cracking my bones

Exposing my true self of ugly brain and set of spinal cord

Lustful monster inside a prison flesh

Forcing me to realize that I'm a mere network of dysfunctional nerves

My dopamine-craving will never cease

Why my awareness need to freeze so I can be at peace?

Why do I have to be tarnished just to survive and live?
