The Monster Within

By Yui_Himiko

Dim azure eyes
Yet with a light of inquisitiveness
Long scythe-like nails
Clasping the sorrows of darkness

The curse of elves in his ears
The legacy of vampires in his teeth
A walking fearful monster
Not realizing the tears beneath

Fair colored skin
And a strong build to front
But without an own spirit to live
Or a face, in the public, to flaunt

And when the clouds cover the skies
The nightmare started to form
Blood covered claws scratch the darkness
As the disguise is gradually torn

A red beam flashes from six glowing eyes
Pointed ears fading to his head
All of his being disappearing into shadows
The human within him is now dead

The creature rushes through the night
Controlling his being as a whole
And yet he still tries to fight
Struggling to gain back his rule

Is it really all about this spirit
Who have taken control of his being?
Or is it about the fear inside
The inevitable trait of a human living
