MONSTER

my eyes stretch as dawn breaks
with my head its shadow would rise.
it wouldn't be long until my mistakes
cause its praise and my demise.

all throughout the hours of my day
it would creep after my every thought.
and for twelve months or more i'd pay
in blood and then sit only to rot.

it likes to torment me with dark glares
just before i begin to dream.
and even in my eery nightmares
its presence would make me scream.

morning, noon, and nights of sorrow
it never leaves or releases me.
yesterday, today, and tomorrow
it its always been and always will be.

i'm fed up with it, i want to be done
with the presence of that sick haunter.
however our physical bodies are one
so i am to forever burden this monster.
one of my favs. again, i will leave interpretation up to the reader~

This one is very interesting. I'm not sure, but I have an idea so I'm going to take a shot at it.

It seems like a person with either a split personality or a person who is fully aware of the dark thoughts he or she has. It seems like maybe this person likes to do bad things, but the other side of the person doesn't. Kind of like good and evil all wrapped up in one. The light side of the person is getting sick of the dark side and vise versa. It really sounds like this person is fighting with himself or herself. It's getting to the point where this person doesn't know how much more they can take being like this anymore. The ultimate battle is always with one's self. This person wants the dark side to go or the monster, but can't get rid of it, because they are one. Well, not without killing himself or herself of course and it seems like this person doesn't want o take their own life. This person feels like all the bad and dark things or "mistakes" that they have made are beginning to catch up with her or him. In the end this person seems to accept that the dark side or the monster is taking over more and more each day and decides to live with it.

Yeah, that's my take on it anyway. Either way I really like this one a lot and I spent about two hours looking over on and off trying to figure out what it's about. A very good read indeed.
