Therapy Bits

I am the monster of every story
I penetrate your dreams
And turn them in to terrifying nightmares
You gasp when you see me
Feel me
Touch me
I am the monster of every story
You beg me not to come at night
I don’t listen
I am the monster of every story
These stories that I am the main star of
Are horror movies
And I, I am the monster of every story
While you, you are my victim
I ensnare you in my claws
Trap you
Wrap my arms around you
You are terrified
And you silently
Beg for mercy
But, I, I don’t listen
No, because
I, I am the monster of every story

Written for the Mindlovemiserys Menagerie First Line Friday prompt, where the first line is, I am the monster of every story.
