The monster in me

The monster in me

A Poem by Marina Rose

I was in it for the way you looked at him. 
This lavender-green sunset will swallow me whole tonight. 
My body hurts but I won’t break my bones for you tonight. 
This summer sickness weighs so heavy, heavy, heavy on my heart.
Your eyes will haunt the monster in me tonight.
This heavy fog will drag me down, will swallow me whole tonight.
