Monster Pt. 2


It tries to let out 

A growl.

I swallow hard

Pushing it to the depths

Of my being.

Quiet!

I say.

But I feel the monster

In my veins.

I feel it in my blood

Making it 

Thicker.

Denser.

Angrier. 

I see how everyone 

Looks at her 

With such 

Awe. 

I hate myself for being 

Entranced as well.

I see how he looks

At her. 

His eyes sparked with...

Curiosity. 

The monster roars

With RAGE.

And I?

What do I do?

I do the most

Shameful

Possible 

Thing.

 

I

Walk 

Away...
