Word of the Day Challenge #42-Untitled Poem

***Please note that this poem is not indicative of how I am feeling today. I am in an extremely good place in life.***

Hush little baby

Don’t say a word

Mama’s gonna……

Mama’s gone.

No one left save me.

Voices howl in my head

concentrated 

telling me 

how useless

unloved

unwanted I am.

Hush little lady

Don’t say a word

Papa’s gonna…..

Dead as dust. 

Forgotten.

Blighted stain on family name.

Slew the dragon I did

with his death.

Hush little woman

Don’t say a word

Here’s a man

come to…..

There is no man

come to care for me.

Placating the demons

galloping

hooting 

screaming

tentacles entwined

heart ashatter

mind broken.

Hush hush…..

Forgotten innocence.

Sweet sister

Demon lover

don’t make a mess.

Keep your thoughts.

Keep your reality.

I will forge mine own.

Quiet

subdued 

monsters sleep

a conscious moment for me.
