👹👹👹
They don’t want to look within,
It’s too scary in there.
A maze of thoughts so dark,
A mind fraught with despair.
👹👹👹
Behind every closed door,
Lurks a shadowed fear.
Silent whispers grow louder,
Each time they draw near.
👹👹👹
A mirror shows their faces,
Twisted in silent screams.
Lost in endless corridors,
Haunted by their dreams.
👹👹👹
👹👹👹
Beneath a calm facade,
Rage storms in their eyes.
Battling with themselves,
Hiding behind lies.
👹👹👹
But monsters lose their power,
When faced with the light.
Courage is born within,
Even in the darkest night.
👹👹👹
When you dare to look inside,
Face the shadows head-on.
It’s in the heart’s deepest battles,
That true strength is born.
👹👹👹
