What Am I?

You'll have to read and see... :D

I am that part of your mind,

No one wishes to find.

Some may call me inhuman,

Others would call me a monster.

But I am only one simple thing.

 

If I showed you what it's like at night,

To run free with no boundaries,

You'll never go back.

People ask me what I am,

But I only answer with one simple word.

 

What am I, you ask?

I am the thing that destroys for greed,

That could spill blood at any moment.

 

I take control at night,

And lose my wickedness during the day.

My dark mind is concealed by a mask of sincerity,

I can even pass for normal if I try.

 

Do I sound familiar?
No?

It's quite obvious, actually.

I am you.
