Monsters and i

I'm going to listen to monsters Hold them when they cry Let them bite me Till my blood softens them awry Then I’ll watch them go away Because that’s what makes me feel alive Human connections is what we live for But much of it consumes me It eats me up Thus it builds me up And I live on With part of me gone Stronger than ever before
