Monster

I just want to be happy

If that's not too much to ask

You were sent to ruin

You're the reason behind suffering

All the tears are yours

Bloodshed belongs to you as well

A pinch from you is enough

To plunge the world into doom

Nobody knows what you are

All we know is you're a curse

Dreams became nightmares

Smiles turned into pain

You're an invisible monster

The one that leeches off joy

The seed of fear has been implanted

Its flowers will distract from the truth

Things past sneaking in to steal moments of happiness? From me this is what I see..for it creeps in and distracts from the truth..great write ..

It can get scary to abandon ones happiness to someone else; they can crush you just because you are vulnerable in your trust. Powerful write, raw emotion. Aces.

People who leave us worse off than we were before they came . powerful write.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

A summation of many a dark night!

[The White Wolf]

Wow! This could sum up any number of toxic people or situations in our life very well. I very much like the ending thought. The last line is a good one!

[Distant horizons]

Powerful write. The scariest thing about knowing a monster, is how unbelievable it sounds and not being able to prove the picture of innocence is a facade. Excellent words.
