Monster

I told her

Actually,

I showed her

I told her to watch

To not be afraid

My body changes

My heart stays the same

But she can't see my heart

She screams

She cries

She throws things

Begs me not to hurt her

Calls me a demon

An animal

A MONSTER

She does not see the beauty

She does not see the grace

I howl in despair

And leap for the window

She thinks me a,

Monster
