Monster

I wear a bracelet of red
Around my pale wrist
Lack of blood
Lack of feeling
Lack of everything that makes me human
Monster battling
Through the walls
Sanity crumbling
Step by step
Can't scream louder than this
But I'll try.
Monster clawing
Tapping at the window
Heart in mouth
This monster has changed
Kitten paws
Press together
Pleading me to take it back.
Let it in.
Out of the December air.
It's the bracelet of red
It's my pale wrist
That it's claws scratch in.
My door's open
But the monster's back
Cornering me
Backing me up
Against the wall
My monster.
Feeding on my mind.
