Fright

by liVing lIes   Nov 1, 2004


Huddled in the corner
in the shadows of my room
I'm trying to hide
from the keeper of doom
cooped up here for so long
scared and alone
I'm the only one effected
there's no one else home
only when he arrives
is there another presence
the more he criticizes
the more my feelings lessen
a presence is all he seems to be
somehow he can't get in
I've wondered why for as long as we've been together
but for him my patience grows thin
farther away he lingers
yet he's still on my mind
haunting me every second
i am still so blind
scared i stay waiting
for the time when he strikes
when he and Mr.Hyde
show to be even more alike
the hideous personality
the uncontrolled anger and rage
here is not where he belongs
they both should be confined to a cage
just like all of the other animals
that are a threat to the human race
the evil ones that are frightening
you can tell just by looking at their face
i don't want to stay here
all i want is out
maybe a decent relationship
one that has no common doubt
someday I'll see what is here
escape when the time is right
leave this terror for good
fond someone new and look into the light
but i can't leave yet
so here i will remain
cold and unloved
scared and contained
