Can't Hide
Running with the shadows,
dodging hurled words,
But they bounce back
like a boomerang,
Impulses rendering remorse
On impact —
Hiding is the only way
it doesn't hurt, but
I can't hide from the
Thing that hides inside me,
In hollowed eyes
the monster resides,
It thrives on the thrill of the kill,
My heart pumps wildly, and
Angst spills from my veins —
I'm not the hunter,
I'm the hunt,
Beware the dusty trails
Of Lessons learnt
