Monsters
We used to look for monsters under our beds, in our closets, down in the basement, but one day, we eventually realized the monsters were truly inside us. I have more monsters inside me than anyone could even begin to imagine, some of us struggle with that I suppose. And of course I’m not talking about the fuzzy, 8-foot tall monsters named “Sully”. No, I’m talking about the real monsters. The ones that sit and fester inside your mind, starting the moment you are born and never going away. The ones that grow and change with you, that learn your biggest weaknesses because they are your biggest weakness. They never leave, never go away, but sometimes, you can shove them back in that closet in your mind and lock it tight. Other times you can’t. But we ALL have these monsters in us, no matter how many, how big, how well we can shove them down.
