Beast Within Poem by Fredrik Hole Halvorsen

Hiding in the shadows of a troubled mind
Driving me forward
All the while destroying me slowly
He need only a moment but its still to much

Can’t handle the destruction
Yet I need him close to the bone
His touch is healing even tho he slowly kills me
Threw him out many times before but he’s still in the deep

Size of a mountain with the moments of a cat
He runs me down once again
Leaving me gasping for air
Can I ever win?
