MoNsTeR

      No matter where I turn, no matter where I look, I see a monster. A monster created from sadness, pain, loneliness, and suffering. And when I close my eyes, I see the monster much clearer. Ruthless, heartless, consciousness. No more does it show emotion, that’s why I call him Monster. It has a one track mind and it can never be reasoned with, I know, I tried.

      Monster only shows rage now, Monster only now does reckless things, Monster destroys the world that no one sees. Minute by minute, I see Monster’s anger rise. I just don’t know how to calm it down. But who am I to do such a thing? No one else tried to, so why should I?

      No one gave a damn about Monster so why do I try to calm Monster? Because of my own fear maybe? Because I see the outcome of the Monster’s damage? Even though many can’t see what Monster is destroying right this second, I know they will when it’s too late. There will people crying, people gathering, and people talking about who Monster use to be.

      I knew Monster before they called him Monster. I can’t help but to know Monster since Monster been around since I could remember. As I stand here and fell Monster’s carnage, I know I must stop Monster somehow, and the only way I know, is by going to hell. I think it’s time that I stop the one I know best, the one that knows me best. I think it’s time for me to kill Monster.

I like....the inner darker being...This is the feeling most people get when they have been pushed to the edge and feel that vengeance is the best key to heal the hurt. Usually this feeling lasts only temporary....but with some people, the monster never dies :)

Great story telling. This did justice in the realm of getting the message across. Great message. There's lot of times where a story can have a great message to aim for, and have a lot of under lining things but then no one gets it, and if no one gets it, then the point has failed. But in my opinion this did well to get the message across. You made it clear, which is why I think it's good. Keep up the good work. What was also great was that I could imagine the story as I read it, and that is also a strong point of stories. The ability to have the reader imagine it because after all we're reading not watching it, but it was as if I was there as I read this, and that is great. Great visuals and great story telling. It had plot and substance. When you add substance to writing it gets that much better. It gets the reader hooked on it and make them feel as if they are part of it. As long as their is that emotional connection between the reader and the story then it's good. The connection you were able to established in the writing gives the reader a sense of comfortably that they are in tune with the writing. So that way when the writing is over, the reader wants more, and wishes it didn't end. I feel the same way when I watched a movie or tv series that I get so attached to, I never want it to end. And for this writing, I didn't want it to end. You had me hooked, and I am sure everyone else who read it was hooked as well. That is good, that is what you want for people to keep wanting more. The way you put the story together makes me feel like my life is different for that moment in which I read your story. I love it, and it was beautiful. Just keep posting stories like this, and you'll have a good following.

Deep and self-reflective. An internal struggle, an effort to quell the beast.
Very nicely presented and conceived.

Let me just say AMAZIINGGGG! lols but yeah I love how this can have mutiple meanings and interpertations to it. There is really no boundary to who "monster" could be or what "monster" truly is. It was really well written. I truly dont think there are any cons to this story, again well done! (:

Wow, that was very well written. I enjoyed the shortness of this story and the abstract meaning behind it. Great job! :)
