Letters from the Gone

Monster (Part 1)

I am not a monster

I am not some....thing that parents tell their kids about at night

I am not a killer

I am simply a child who has become lost

In the violence

In the pain

We all grow up

With a little voice inside of us

Some choose to ignore it, and live boring lives

Some rebel against it, continuing on to greatness

Some follow it, like me

Turning down the wrong paths

Choosing the wrong answers

To questions once deemed simple

Nothing is simple

Not in this world

I am not a monster

I have just lost my humanity
