My Little Green Monster

My little green monster,
Sleeps in my bed,
Haunts my dreams,
Turns them red.

My little green monster,
Fuelled by fear,
Taunts my waking hours,
When you're not here.

My little green monster,
He isn't very big,
He sits on my shoulder,
Very near my head.

My little green monster,
Although not very big,
Becomes a giant,
When over-fed.

My little green monster,
Survives off tears,
A well filled up on,
Years of fears.

My little green monster,
He really loves you,
The current source of,
Heartache so true.

My little green monster,
Isn't happy any more,
He'd prefer me,
Treated like a whore.

My little green monster,
Won't live very long,
As I learn to love,
His source of fear is gone.

Darkness To Possess

I met him in the darkness,.
He brought me to the light,.
Passion never dulled,
No matter how much we fight.

Simple rules of engagement,
Broken, driven in two.
Serious self contemplation over you.

Easy decisions of consideration,
Brushed off, negated,
Leaving me fragile and self hating.

Basic acts of kindness,
Forgotten, denied,
But you still want a place at my side?

Common decency defined,
Confess, deny,
You left me to die.

A dichotomy refined,
love me, leave me,
I'm left with a lack of progress.

Heart-ache at its best,.
My heart you will always possess,.
Darkness does not exist in presence.
