Run little girl run and hide
Fearful monsters roam outside
Close the windows pull the blinds
Shut the door and stay inside
The swirling mass of inky black
Slimy hands waiting to hack
Evil eyes and dripping fangs
Wicked laughter deafening clangs
Monstrous trees standing tall
Branches spread to scratch and maul
The scary world holds them all
Do not venture out at all.
Lies and Deceit rule with masks
Honesty is taken to task
Friendship fled long ago
Sincerity has nowhere to go.
What is right what is wrong
When Feelings are sold for a song
In our journey Truth derails
And Love remains in misty veils
Life is no beautiful dell
Crawl into your safe hard shell
In your fortress in my heart
Stay alive till we depart.

It is a reality, isnt it? But what inspires the negativity - very uncharacteristics of your writing.
The lines were hard hitting. Very difficult to ignore.
