Creature of the Night
Creature of the Night
At night the crazy comes out after a long day of pretending to be someone I’m not. In the safety of my house, where no one can see me, I can finally be myself. I’m two different people. There’s the me you see during the day and the real me. The me no one knows about. The me no one can know about. The me who is a monster. When I’m around people and their eyes are constantly watching me, their minds judging me trying to find out who I am and if I have any secrets, I can control myself. Even at night i try to hide it. I try to control the person I really am. It’s when i’m not trying that accidents happen and I lose everything. Usually I can keep it under control if i’m really trying hard and focusing everything I have into it. But if there’s a full moon out there’s nothing I can do. I lose control no matter how hard I focus, No matter how hard I try. I wish I didn’t become the monster that I am. I wish I was just a normal human being but I can’t control what I was born as. After all this time I’ve finally realized that there is no hope for me. No one can help me. Nothing is ever going to change. And since I don’t want to hurt anyone else I lock myself in my basement at the end of everyday and hope the monster I become at night doesn’t find a way to escape.
