The Monster came at night,
When everyone slept
And took their hopes, dreams, and desires
And it left them in despair and
With nothing to live for,
They locked themselves away,
From love, from hate, and from everything in between,
And faded into the background.
When everything was returned to them,
When the Monster was caught,
They didn't know what to do
How to think, how to act, how to live
And forgot how to care.
They stayed asleep.
Wow this was a really good poem. I liked the triplets you used and also the alliteration. It has a strong theme as well and it really sucks the reader in.
