You're a monster

They scream to your face

As you lie beaten and bruised on the pavement

Eye swollen shut and cuts trace your arms

You try to stand but they shove you down

Punch after punch they beat you

Yet you try to stand once again

Let's make you as ugly

As you are on the inside they chant

With that they pull out a knife

And they slash it across your eye

Down your nose and up to your lip

Blood covers your vision

And you finally lay there sobbing

Satisfied they walk away

Tears pour down your face

And insert the wound only making it worst

Crying in an alleyway

Blood drenching your clothes

And body too sore to stand

You let out a cry of defeat

Not only is this pain physical

It cuts deep inside your emotional state

For now you will have

To do with this scar

The scar that you will see

The one that you will see everyday

When you look into the mirror

Not only that but now people will wonder

Wonder about how you got that scar

And they will be convinced that you are nothing but

A MONSTER

Those two words are the last ones to ring through your mind

Before you lost consciousness
