Metaphorical Monsters

It’s funny how being nice is actually a weakness. Since we are like they tell you to be nice, to be kind, to love one other but what they don’t tell you is that being nice comes with a price.

Demons, monster, terrible things will latch on to you. Make everything your fault and always pretend they are the victims. You try to help but that’s not good enough. When you need help back in the closet, or under the bed they go.

You realize you’re alone. You surrounded yourself with monsters for as long as you could remember thinking that one day you’ll be good enough for them.

Slowly you become a monster not on the outside, like the others, but inside. You just get this feeling that begins to grow. You get angrier, smarter until finally you bust.

No longer do you want these monsters around you. You didn’t deserve to be stuck with them. Finally you see them for who they really are.

After this getting rid of them is easy because they stick in groups. You get rid of one, you get rid of all of them.

Sadly you are forced to watch another victim fall prey to them. They also are nice and kind and the monsters know. So they prey. Slowly converting their victim into another monster.

You try to help but it’s no use. They have to learn just like you did.
