Poem - Look deep, look deeper
you know it is there
do not think of them
they will never understand.
They do not feel the call.
The urge.
The shaking of your mind, of everything you are.
Look deep, look deeper.
There it is
sleeping, peacefully breathing
touch it, gently.
Feel it, and don't scream.
This monster under your bed, is it inside you?
They don't understand.
Will you wake it up?
Look deep, look deeper
inside, now, what can you see
shadows and light, dark figures, and bright windows
look deep, look deeper.
Take my hand.
