The Beast
I feel the claws wrap around me
And dig into my
skin
It hurts
But there's something comforting in the pain
Each day the
beast consumes more of my mind and body
I'm slowly disappearing
My
memories are fading and my dreams are tainted
I live for the beast
He has
become my family, my home, my life
I'm never without him, for we are
one
He is powerful and he scares me
But I am weak and forfeit to him
I
know soon there will be nothing of me left
I will be the beast and who can
love a BEAST?
I am never alone
You're always with me
Yet I always
feel lonely
I am never hungry
You fill me up
Yet I always feel
empty
I should be calm
You comfort me
Yet I am always
anxious
I never cry
You take my tears
Yet I am always sad
I
am strong
You're in control
Yet I feel weak
I want to change
To let you go
Yet you're my LIFE
