Monsters

I wrote this on 07/01/2020 at 2:53 a.m.

Women who had survived what I survived reached out to me. It illuminated memories I had blacked out, and I wrote this.


 I want to tell you a story about monsters

wrongsters

People try to cripple those who talk sirs

Monsters 

Lady walking tall taking a wrong turn

Stop her

She's about bleed because he wants her

drop, burn

He's so far away 

But he's so deep inside my brain

Like an on and on refrain

Just pain


Try to hide but life's a moving train

no rain

stains

splashing down a window pain

like hein-

ous crimes and chimes I whine

and blame


He took me as an addition to his collection

Told me my eyes told lies for his reflection

mirror-black 

like crack

for others' deep inspection

never stopping for internal correction


I was but a tool for him to better serve his ego

we go

on and on, a dizzy wizzy freak show

It's me though

my body, my mind for him to use so

abuse so

say the word, my job is to amuse so


I believed every word he ever told me

I would have died

and lied

I cried for him to show me

Until the day he ordered me with "blow me".


And I cried that night

oh I cried that night

I cried I cried I cried that night 

cuz the game was up

I had to fight

Had to live one more day, living on pure spite

My imagination to control, gave me a new sight

But in my heart, I knew that  coffee didn't brew right


But he's dead, and I'm alive

He's dead, I'm not his prize

He's dead, and I have opened up my eyes

I've found truth

so uncouth

but I've pulled a bloody tooth

I have grown

full blown

past the anger and unknown

and I hate

oh, I hate

how I've had to close that gate

I thought I was so great

But there's bloodstains on my plate.


I didn't as for this war, but lord I'll fight it

There's no choice, nowhere to run and hide

never mind

Fuck that, I'll fight it

I have a goal now, a purpose

I'm worth it.

By the scar that marks my body

G/d I've earned it

Every scream, Lord I'll redeem

because I heard it
