Your Monster

Before I came here I was someone just like you
A blessed stranger to the change you put me through
But then you held that twisted mirror to my eyes
And turned them to a face I did not recognize

I’m transformed in here
The holding ground for all your fear
And as myself, I disappear, into what you see
I begin to be your monster

Your monster

There is a darkness at the edges of your mind
It cries out to be seen but you’ll always be blind
In darkened corners where your sun will never shine
It cries out to be named and now that name is mine

In your web of dreams
Where everything becomes just what it seems
And all your secrets bursting at the seams - you need me
I’ll step in to be
Your monster

all you disavow
is come back to you now
all of you you cannot know
in me, let your horror show

I’m transformed in here
The holding ground for all your fear
And now it’s done - I have become what you see
Say hello to me:
Your monster
