MY EXISTENCE

I'm stuck in a haunted house...

Where screams and cries become my companions. 

But the plot twist is,

I was made the monster.

In a world of fairytales where love and happiness reign,

I was never part of it,

I was the invisible line across every ocean's barrier,

The wrapper of every sweet thrown away, 

A mistake that needed to be fixed.

The buzzing sound of mosquitoes that needed to be silenced.

In conclusion of every metaphorical piece fixed into this chaotic puzzle,

I was the unwanted piece wanted gone.

A monster made from deprivation of affection. 

A 'Lilo and stitch' made opposites. 

I'm told the sound of my yells and cries of pain are enough reasons for me to suffer,

I was a nuisance to the world.

Unwanted... 

But as time went by someone kept seeking for me,

Yearning for my presence, 

My Lilo?

For within her arms, I felt wanted and heard,

But my fragile essence was being tortured through a deadly exorcism.

So, the decision was made.

I once thought the ocean’s gift to me was drowning.

So, I went deeper,

Engulfed in its darkness.

Watching my miserable life flash before my eyes like a mocking nightmare.

Utterly alone, surrendering every fiber of my being into oblivion.

But like a miracle, she came and rescued me.

And somehow, all my pains and miseries were washed away.

I could finally breathe…

From there on, I knew I would never be alone again.

At last, I was heard.
