A poem from the perspective of multiple characters from my upcoming book.
I've been alone my whole life
Locked doors and constant strife
Of all of those who had loved me still...
Even as I told them
How the fire burns within my bones
How the darkness calls me home
How my touch can kill
And even then
They take me in
And then there comes the fighting
Screaming
Crying
Pain and suffering in my wake
I told you so
I told them so
And yet they never listen
Get out
They yell
You're a monster
They tell
But that is the lot of the demon
Forever cursed with this cruel spell
I've always been alone
Maybe true, maybe not
But even so
I'm telling you to let me go
