can you see
the monster
living under my bed
in my closet
in my head?can you hear
the words
my demons
whisper in my ear
in the dead of night?can you feel
the effects
the ghosts of my
past and present
have on me?can you see past
the mask
i'm hiding behind
trying to hide
myself from the world?can you climb
this wall
that i've built
around my heart
to keep it from breaking one last time?
