The Monster

The Monster

There is a monster
living inside me
A monster so horrible
I can't let anyone see.

The monster is my emotions.
Living in my heart
Kicking against my soul
Tearing me apart.

This monster is so evil
He must be kept inside.
And because the monster's there
I know I must also hide.

Hide from others
Not letting them see my pain.
Hide in the darkness
So that on them I do not drain.

I alone must handle the monster
With him I'll live or die.
I can't tell anyone how much he hurts me.
I can only cry.

Dave Whitaker
