This creature that lives within me,
with it's dark black, dripping fangs;
desires now to eat me,
to cease its tireless hunger pains.

^^^ I had a picture of a monster in my mind when I read the first two lines. Was able to put a picture in my mind. The whole poem just seems like the monster wants to eat you completely and just get rid of everything and anything about. WELL know what I am going to throw that monster up into the sky and its going to fly far far away forever.

Every happy moment
its fur bristles with distrust, dissatisfied.
It hungers for the starlit tears
that fall from my tired eyes.

^^^ Don't cry loves ): Remember I am here if you need some one to cry to. Always going to be here for you no matter what. HOW about you give me your monster? THAT WAY it will eat me and not you. sounds like a good idea to me.

And when I refuse to feed it,
it scratches up my dry, chapped skin.
It's claws dig into my heart, my brain,
and it tortures me from within.

^^^ ): Why does it feel like I don't think you are as happy as you were anymore. Not happy from what I have been reading so far. D: I don't like when my Gabby is sad! Makes me sad.

It's eating me so slowly.
I want to get it so far out.
Dying, drying, crying, lying,
my monster is insecurity and doubt.

^^^ I am going to take that monster away forever. OH AND you are not dying not while I am around. You and I are still going on top of that high mountain remember that. We will just say goodbye forever to that monster.

*hugs*
i love you hun..
and i'm here.
take my hand and walk with me...
im not going to leave you.

You're beautiful.
