MoNsTeR

      No matter where I turn, no matter where I look, I see a monster. A monster created from sadness, pain, loneliness, and suffering. And when I close my eyes, I see the monster much clearer. Ruthless, heartless, consciousness. No more does it show emotion, that’s why I call him Monster. It has a one track mind and it can never be reasoned with, I know, I tried.

      Monster only shows rage now, Monster only now does reckless things, Monster destroys the world that no one sees. Minute by minute, I see Monster’s anger rise. I just don’t know how to calm it down. But who am I to do such a thing? No one else tried to, so why should I?

      No one gave a damn about Monster so why do I try to calm Monster? Because of my own fear maybe? Because I see the outcome of the Monster’s damage? Even though many can’t see what Monster is destroying right this second, I know they will when it’s too late. There will people crying, people gathering, and people talking about who Monster use to be.

      I knew Monster before they called him Monster. I can’t help but to know Monster since Monster been around since I could remember. As I stand here and fell Monster’s carnage, I know I must stop Monster somehow, and the only way I know, is by going to hell. I think it’s time that I stop the one I know best, the one that knows me best. I think it’s time for me to kill Monster.

I like....the inner darker being...This is the feeling most people get when they have been pushed to the edge and feel that vengeance is the best key to heal the hurt. Usually this feeling lasts only temporary....but with some people, the monster never dies :)

~awesome write~

The picture was frightening if I saw that in real life I would run like the wind. And look back thinking it wasn't real it was all a dream or maybe it was just a myth. I like how you question yourself in this story and draws the readers attention on how you feel about yourself. I could imagine what you would be like if you met yourself. Talking and asking to yourself about this monster that disturbs, ruins and destroys your life. Short and stunning story

:( This makes me sad.
The metaphor is very apt and you used it well throughout this piece. I saw a dangerous monster reading this, though I don't believe you are one.
