The Beast Within

I have this darkness buried deep within

I need to let out, not sure how to begin

It’s beneath the surface just waiting to break free

Once out it stays, even if it’s wild and beastly

This really dark chapter is taking over

Others see it too, it’s becoming difficult to cover

It feels perfect even though I know this could all go wrong

And I can’t fight it, this picture perfect person isn’t that strong

It feels bad but yet so very good

Like this lioness hidden under a pretty hood

When the time feels right, it’ll strike

Danger in full mode, this beast wasn’t born overnight
