MY MONSTER

By infinitebeing

My monster has many names  
It feeds through my veins
It lives in my mind
Idling all my time.

My monster whispers in my ear
Reminding me of all my fears
Memories replayed in my head
Until my monster is spoon-fed.

    An original spoof of the monster metaphor. Short but meaningful. :)

    yes I agree, the spoon houses many monsters. ive seen friends struggle with that addiction and because of that I will never fuck with heroin or any thing else that's labeled heaven in a syringe. I see what it does, I wish you could of saw that, but we walk other paths and because of these paths we become who we are. and fuck people that judge our past, its people like that, that make us feel like we'll never make it out. but its all up to us to make that choice, that huge fucking decision to give it up. its hard as hell, and I hope your strength stays strong, life is much better with out the dope, as im sure you know. i hope this didn't sound like a lecture, but then again, take it how you want, cause you know whats up miss infinite. and I care. awesome poem.

    self inflicted pain can be a pleasuring release... i understand.

  • A former member wrote: My monster I have failed with fighting is my need to feel pain not caused by others.
