Monsters Within

"What happens when we are trying to search for the monsters that surround us and we realise its the one in our heads..." -Max Cryne

Monsters, something humans see as horrible creatures who are different then us. I've been told stories about them but was never scared so I didn't believe in them. as much I would say I'm still not scared, I can't. A monster hidden in plain sight and I didn't even see it when was a kid. The day I realized that there was monsters hidden in the world was the day I myself was called one. It was then I started to see all of the monsters surrounding me.

I have figured out a way to hide my monster and it seems that are three types of monsters in this world. Well, more like the type of people with their monsters. There were people who let their monsters consume them to where that's all there is, just a monster. Then the monster I like to call beauty not so skin deep, they look nice and act like their beautiful on the surface but they are cruel and the monster lashes out.Then theres the "shy guy". This person hides there monster because they don't want to hurt anyone. This person is the kindest person ever but even that couldn't help them, they still have to carry the darkness in their head. Last but not least as there are many more, the cruelest monster paired with heartless personality, me. I have experienced people like this and learned that I am in fact one of them, they don't need a monster to show that they don't care but they know how people feel. These people have learned how to get rid of feelings as well learned how to keep there monster at bay.

I would like to eleberate on the last one. Even though they look like they have no emotion, they do, they just knowhow to hide it. In other words, they have someone they will protect no matter the cost and if that loved one gets hurt, the monster will come out and say hello....
