•ӝӜ the monster in the dark {One Shoot Sunday at One Stop Poetry} | haiku love songs

.

.

 the monster in the dark •ӝ• always there ~ felt rather than seen
manifested in fear…
gripping one's heart
so tight
it's impossible to breathe •ӝ• always there ~ in the knowledge
that happiness
won't last…
can't last…
it's not deserved •ӝ• always there ~ in the back of  the mind
constantly
eating away…
eroding confidence…
until it's merely bravado •ӝ• always there ~ ready…
waiting…
hungry
to take control…
to sabotage •ӝ• always there ~ insecure…
defensive…
arrogant…
hurting anyone
who gets too close •ӝ• always there ~ the monster
in the dark…
the monster
who is
me
•ӝӜӝ•
