Redemption

A quiet Saturday night
Marks the end of my plight.
The mist has cleared, at last revealed
The monster that hunted me.

For months it played with my heart.
Twisted and broke apart
It drove me mad, needlessly sad
All the while, in deep disguise.

I blamed my near and dear ones
For having loved me once.
I doubted the fair maiden,
Who, my mind, had shaken.

But all in all, feeding me gall,
It was in myself, like a nimble wood elf,
A playwright's boon, my mental typhoon.
But no more shall I hide.

From the monster that waits inside.
I have survived the monstrous tide.
And with its own power shall it misguide.
The worst has passed.

It has been ousted at last.
My heart smiles with glee
I am finally free.

"This feeling, inside me.
Finally found my love, I finally broke free
No longer torn in two,
I'd take my own life before losing you..."
