The Monsters Inside Me

by Good Enough   Mar 30, 2011


My lungs are tired from all the air
In and out through the nose
And out the mouth again

Running away from my fears
The scary shadows across the wall
The moans and groans from outside

My thoughts are monsters that roam
And take over who I thought I was
Or am I what I thought?

Confusing, conflicting racing, running
The monster inside me is in control
I cannot run anymore. I will not

Let it consume me, for I am weak
I am tired and unable to speak
The monsters inside me take over.

    Its simple. It is the oppossite of what im feeling. Im feelng strong. Nice poem. I would suggest using stronger metaphors. One thing I learned from writing and music is that what ever art form one undertakes art is the ability to take control of someones emotions by using your mind. From the looks of that comment above you did just that. Write to move people. Great job. Ill see you in the club forums =)
