the monster

It welcomes me with open arms

Wrapping itself around my tender skin

Embracing me into a cool, beauteous trance

Welcoming me home.


For who is this creature 

With its righteous claws and its jagged skin

Being ever so kind

Inviting me in?


Guide me through the woods 

Lead me through this undeniably wretched place

So dark

But it prevents me from being afraid with its soft, welcoming face. 


Thank you, kind sir

Your monstrous state of physical appearance

For I know better now
