Monster

A Poem by Maddy Raye

There's this monster, that's inside my mind.
He's been there for awhile, but now he's made a bed.
There's this thing, that's inside my head.
He's very bad, but now he's made me change.
There's this evil, that's inside my brain.
He's been there forever, but now its his home.
There's this wickedness, that's inside my viens.
He's knows the way to my heart, but Im starting to think he made it dark.
There's this monster, that's inside my blood.
He's been there through dark and light, but now I'm scared to admit, he's now a part of me.
There's this thing, that's inside my bones.
He's been my only friend, but hes told me to do bad things.
Theres this evil, that's inside my home.
He's made a really bad mess of things.
There's this wickedness that lives here with me.
He's calls me ugly and stupid.
He tells me "life's not worth living, so come live with me."
He tells me "Baby end this pain, this worthless fight."
He calls me weak and a fool.
He tells me things that I believe.
Hes more powerful than me.
He uses my weakness against me.
Like I'm some kind of puppet.
You see, a girl once so sweet and innocent, has now turned into what some may say "Monster."

Wow. Nice metaphorical use of a "monster" to describe anxiety, depression and self esteem. I like the descriptions of how it's become an all consuming entity, one that is slowly taking over both mind and body. You have a smooth flow here and the transition to thoughts at the end adds to the structure. Thank you for sharing!

Very good way of using imagination and coming up with several negative thoughts as Monster within.

Well done.
