Even though my country is at peace,
My mind is not
There is a monster
Lurking around, waiting,
Waiting to take full
Control of my body
I am aware of its presence
And try my very best to lock it away
But, this monster is persistent
'it' never stays in its cage for long
I always have to build a new one
As years drone on,
The monster becomes stronger and
My willpower becomes weaker
There was once I could not
Control 'it'
I cried out in the darkness
But nobody came
'it' sneered and taunted me
And prepared to attack
And suddenly, He appeared
He drove 'It' away and
Coiled His fingers around mine
And pulled me up
It was then
I realised I am not alone
Even though it seems He disappears
He never once left my side
He would always be there for me
Till the end of time
And what He did that touched me was
He loved me
Even though I was a mess,
Broken,
Complicated
He loved me with all his heart
