Cultivating a creation brought to you from the darkest corners of your mind, the lies, the sinister, the regret, the unholy, the gory, the wild, the raw.

The Monster.

You suppress it all,
And yet you carry it with in you,
Everywhere you go,
In the back if your mind it haunts you,
Getting further pushed back into your subconscious,
The thoughts you hate to remember,
The fears you face,
The insomnia you keep,
From the daunting remembrance of those events you try harder and harder to subdue,
Deeper and deeper into you,
But you can only push so far before you irrupt like a volcano,
Ruining everything its its wake,
Only you ruin other things,
The relationship you love,
The friends you adore,
You ruin it all,
In an attempt to keep the monsters at bay.
