Beast

The blood you made me shed,
Was just what my beast needed to be fed,
To grow strong and finally last,
Through the dying shadow of a hurt past.

Its claws will rip through my fears,
It’ll swallow down all those acid tears,
And carry me through the howling night,
Giving me strength to devour my fright.

I’ll become all I ever wanted to be,
I can finally let go and be free.
I will break my masks and burn the ropes,
That chained down my dreams and hopes.
