someone else keeps coming out
you're mister hyde, bitter and broken
scaring the ones you love. how could you?
conversations unremembered. what are you now?
spewing hatred like poison gas, choking on it,
drowning and vomiting, like piss on the floor.
an animal of self-pity manipulation contortion
whining in the night hours, leaving scratches on your
skin. stripped. flayed.
an ugly caricature of the girl you used to know.
there is so much concern in their sad eyes,
looking at your unconvincing smile.
keep trying, but it’s a losing battle.
it’s only a matter of time.
embrace the straightjacket and force-fed food.
this road only leads one place.
