Monster

There’s a monster in all of us.

But not all of them can be slain like they should be.

You battle every day.

And every day, he makes you weaker.

And the more you battle.

The more scars he leaves.

No, not physical ones.

But emotional ones that have amplified

 

So many people say, “ignorance is bliss”

But ignorance leaves more scars than you’d like to admit.

And when you finally acknowledge these scars,

they’d worn you down so much,

that each scar leaves you agonized

At the slightest touch of

Affection

Worthiness

Validation

And that’s life,

A life with Borderline Personality Disorder

 

And the worst part is,

These scars were not created by myself

But others who decided to inflict their insecurities through me.

Author's Note

Any reviews would be greatly appreciated. I just want to know if this is a good pov of a person with mental illness overall I guess.
