I believe that monsters are real...
I know they are,
Because I know more than one.
So hostile over such trivial little things,
Talking at me instead of to me,
So afraid to do someone else wrong,
Not seeing the pain that you inflict on me...
They get in your head,
They make you wonder...
If you're really the bad person,
And maybe the only reason
You see yourself as the good guy,
Is because you're seeing it from
Your own perspective...
They make you hate;
Wanting to lash out
At everyone and everything.
If you want me to become
Hatred incarnate,
If that is what you mold me into,
That is what I will become...
I am the monster.

Literature
I Am My Enemy
Scream again.
I can't contain the pain.
I need the bite of blade,
need to see the blood.
Trapped inside my head,
screaming never stops.
Hating everything,
I need to get away.
Can't escape myself.
I find me wherever I hide.
I can't keep it in.
I can't let it out.
Letting go doesn't grant release.
My monsters hold me down,
hold me back,
lock me away.
I can't come back.
Trembling with emotion,
I reach desperately.
Reach for the unknown.
Even the silent air can't quell my screaming.
Shatter all my shackles,
shatter all my chains.
Break the doors and walls apart.
I'll release my demons.
All I need to do is let everything out.
Every last vanished s
Literature
Insanity
Arrogance abounds as I tumble down
Never looking up at those who laugh
Pride that makes me fall will keep me shattered
There is nothing that I trust more than the Voices in my head
They never lie,
though they are rarely kind
I don't need pity
I don't need love
All I have is dark and cold,
huddled in my fear
Who needs to be happy when blood holds thrall?
Pain can fill the emptiness
Appear as often as I need
I can Vanish anytime
I can Disappear
No one can put together all my crumbled shards
Not a single tear will be captured
Sorrow drowns in ecstasy
and I wonder who I am
Literature
Absolutely Never
I set life aside
and made a world of my own
bathed myself in stagnant water
because I'm scared of the riptides.
You tell me to break a leg
and maybe find love in the process
but that maybe could take years
or never happen at all.
So let me live in peace
in the bubble I blew
hidden away from the "maybe, possible, sometimes"
while I drown in the absolutes.

Ever watch a movie called '' Falling Down '' with Michael Douglas ? ......at the end he says '' You mean I'm the Bad Guy ? " .Even the bad guys don't see themselves as bad guys and I think we delude ourselves too in our behaviour .We always have a whole warehouse of justifications for our actions.I don't think you are a monster though though maybe one from Monsters Inc.(
).?????
There are plenty of people whose behaviour is unfathomable but then who needs monsters when we have humankind ?
