Letting in the monsters

"With so many stitched up wounds and bandaged cuts, you would think i'm smart enough to lock the doors and draw the curtains. But my fault is forgiving and my mistake is trusting because every time the doorbell rings, i invite the monsters in with a worn down smile, hoping they would behave. And every single time they leave, i am left with a few more wounds and a couple more cuts thinking it will be better next time they visit."
