You’re Where The Monsters Belong

Abstract poetry lines

Why didn’t you ask for help? You knew you couldn’t win You kept it all to yourself, again

How does it feel? To lose everything

How does it feel? To watch all the pieces fall and disappear?

Were your actions worth it? Was the love worth the forfeit?

What will you do now? Who will you become now?

I hope your actions were worth it. But I can’t imagine they could be

You could be here Sitting next to me But you never enjoyed that You always wanted to be in pain Everything good for you only brought apathy Now you’re somewhere you’ll never be happy

But maybe you will be You’re where the monsters belong
