When I nibbled you ate,
When I ate you devoured.
The hunger of a beast, the fury of a god.
The anger and wrath of the disempowered.
Perhaps I’d known it was all a fraud.
Now I stand in front, full of bravade.
We’re one and the same, a hunger a greed.
Both horrid sides of the same thing.
Shock and denial, anger, bargaining.
I write to you as if you aren’t me.
Guilt and depression, I show no remorse.
Acceptance at last, what have I become.
A husk of a child, a story of olde.
Look onward now, I have you beguiled.
Here now I lie, a child I weep.
Monster I be and a monster I grieve.
I miss who I was, innocent and sweet.
He who pay the cost now only be me.
