and that they never existed
but still I insisted
that they were real
if they could only feel
what I felt
then I told the ones who should've cared
that they were there
and that I was scared
but did they care
no
their response
so
that's when I knew
monsters weren't just monsters
they were people too
that's why some refuse to fight them
knowing that they're fueled by fire
they choose not to ignite them
I fight them despite them
because I'm no longer that kid who lost it
claiming he saw a pair of eyes
while staring into his closet
being told to stop telling lies
monsters are alive
they're just not in the closet
or under the bed
they're in my head
just like they said
