The Beast

2 1 1
                                    

It follows me around
Everywhere I go.
It's big
And scary
And won't let me be.

Whenever I am
It always feeds
Feeds off of my emotions
Feeds off of my thoughts
Feeds off of my words
Feeds off of my actions.

It always stands over me
Closely watching
Everything I feel
Everything I think
Everything I say
Everything I do.

The beast follows me everywhere
And it is hungry.
