Monster

Although you never see him
You know he's there
Sensing his presence
All through the air

Watching
While you sleep
While you eat
Listens
To your secrets
To your conversations
Waiting
For your guard to go down
For you not to be ready

When he strikes
He's quick
He's strong

You can't get away
You can struggle
You can run
But no use

Your in his grip
And can never get out
You are now his
Forever

Who is it you may wonder
He is not the boogeyman
He is not fake
He is as real as you or me
He is the monster.
