Hidden Monster

Despite the pain and hurt you caused

I once again fell asleep dreaming I was curled up in your arms

If we could just go back to the way things were

I woke up with a start and exclaimed "no this can never happen again"

Anxiety and fear raced over me as I cried uncontrollably

The realization of who you are had been defined

Controlling, manipulating, and remorseless 

An absolute monster

We will never be again
