"We Win"
February 23, 2014
Let your mind drift to a land of dreams.
Where no one can hurt you.
And you have nothing to fear.
At least not until the monsters arrive.
Then along with the monsters come the nightmares.
That haunt every waking moment.
Fed by your sadness and the hateful words of others until...
The monsters fall silent.
As the now empty bottle of pills slips from your hand.
The monsters say their final words.
"We win."
