Monsters

Not too long back she was scared of the dark around. The pitch black and the vastness of it. Today she's scared it may not be as vast as she thought, be able to reach its edge by just stretching her hand out.

The dark is unfriendly she's known. Its still quite comforting . She's known that too. There are monsters lurking in the corner, and under her skin. Quiet, scared , intimidated for the time being. They are not really her friends but there's some comfort in having familiar enemies who's every move she knows, enemies which strike at precisely the same vein.A vein she's got covered. She's tamed the monsters, she thinks.Struck a deal with them. Its quite easy right now.

But they'll raise their ugly heads again, so she despairs. She can't let them. She repeats for the nth time. She just can't . Cos this time, no lifeboat will be able to save her. And while she loves the the cold, choppy waters, she doesn't want to drown. Not with these monsters.Not this time.
