The Monster Part 1

The monster.
he lives inside of me.
I fear him,
I fear me,
I fear for all.
I try my hardest
but i never succeed,
it cannot be concealed,
it cannot be defeated.
it's power,
it's aggression,
is more than i can handle
and now it's growing stronger.
he is enraged,
at me,
at the world,
and at life.
he wants out
and he wants loose.
he wants chaos.
he wants destruction.
but for now,
he is locked up tight.
And he waits for a weakness
in his chains,
and he waits to rise
and rage again,
