the monster
I want to cry,
 I want to cry and shake and sob 
 and push away all consolation,
 I want to bask in uncontrollable misery
  with no chance of being stopped,
 I want to curse and throw glasses against walls
 So that everyone knows exactly how messed up I am,
 
 I want people to look at me and see the disgust that lives inside me,
 I want people to fear me because I cannot be understood,
 I am a physical oddity that cares not for anything,
 Let my nails fill with dirt and my feet blood
 Because nothing matters the way you claim it does,
 I don’t want people to see beauty or strength or control,
 Let them see fear and grass and the raw emotions
 That I cover up with dry skin and bleached hair,
 I am a monster, and I cannot stop.
