He is as Human as I am.

He is as Human as I am.

A Poem by Anna Sarah
"

Hating him for to monster he is

"
I've been afraid of you since I can remember; yet I was always checking under my bed or in my closet not knowing you were always in front of me.
I've spent so long hating the wrong people when I should be hating you, but how can I hate you when I hardly know you? I don't remember your last name but the sound of your voice still rings clear. I don't remember the colour of your hair but I remember your hands and the way I so desperately wished they would find another place to rest.
You are the monster that is yet to leave my shadow and I hate you. You follow me in the sunrise and the sunset. There is not a day that goes by where I do not trip up on you For the first time in along time I feel like I can hate you, that I can accept that this is all your fault. I never asked for this yet I'm still having to describe your mistakes and my misfortune to strangers with a pen and paper. Seven years later and I still find your hiding spots in amoungst hazy memories
