That little monster
Most of us know this little monster
It sleeps within us
It hides close to your stomach
It kills you’re hunger
it puts knots in everything
It comes and sits on your shoulder
At times, you don’t need it
We all want it to leave
But it sticks
It takes out logic
It takes out common sense
It takes out everything you know
Or is it just cleaning?
Is it making room?
Is it emptying?
As it feels like it’s chewing my heart
Spitting it out
And chewing again
Coming at night
Coming in the morning
It’s always there
So…
I need help, catching this monster
