The Monster Inside
Destiny of the Beast
I'm afraid to look into the mirror.
Afraid that I'll find the monster inside me staring back.
In my attempt to run from it I only found more
The graveyard in my soul once again overflowing.
How much longer can I run before they catch up?
Was I ever supposed to outrun them?
Or has it always been my destiny to succumb to the beast inside?
I always wanted to be the hero but it seems I'm only made to be the villain.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
