Monster.

Her heart belongs to one too many,

She can't seem to find

The one she wishes to be with.

Her love scattered out,

To not one.

But two people.

The pain it causes her,

The hatred she feels for herself;

Nothing like this has happened before

To her.

She feels like a monster,

Like she's being eaten alive,

Like she's going to disintegrate

Before their very eyes.

Some say she's beautiful,

Trustworthy and honest.

While those who truly know her

Know what she's going through.

Night and day she thinks -

"Man, I wish I could escape".

She wants to know how to fix this mess

She calls her life.

The passion she feels

To be beside them;

she knows it's wrong,

And she knows she's going

To hurt herself and those around her.

Now,

You may think she's a drama queen,

But really.

She's just a girl who wishes

To have a normal life,

The life she had;

The life before she met them.

Not one of my best but words from my heart...

Good stuff... definitely felt it coming from your heart. I've been in this situations lots of times, so I know what it feels like. I definitely connected with perceiving oneself like a "monster" or something horrible from the scenario. The weight of the stress is heavy, and your writing shows what that's like. Anyways, props to you for writing this.

it may not be your best, but it is a great write! and though not everyone may have - or are - been caught in this situation, the way you wrote it makes it impossible to not see both the dilemma she is facing loving two people and the knowledge that people are going to be hurt, but also her desire to figure out how to fix it.

a classic tragedy turned inward~ a candid disclosure placed inside the heart of the poetic form~ well done~
