_{You aren't the same girl
that I fell in love with
so many years ago

You've managed to completely
change everything
about you and I can't even
begin to see through
the layers you've put up
in defense
from what?

Even if you were never
the type to be
completely open with
me, you still
at least were kind and
warm but
now all of that has changed
and I can't understand why

Did something swallow
who you used to be and turn you
into this cold
shell of who you once were
or am I the missing culprit?

I took you up to the peak of
that mountain and I
left you stranded alone to find
your way back to
civilization
without any help

And so maybe it is my fault
you've become this
monster
though it won't change
what you are now
or was I the monster the whole time?

Though now I guess
the playing field has been leveled
because you're a man eater
now and I've been an
animal all along.}
