Array ( [sid] => 24820 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Y(me)OU [time] => 2003-10-11 00:56:53 [hometext] => a bit repetitive in it's own way, but it serves the point i'm trying to make [bodytext] => you can't run
can't turn away
cuz i'm always with you

so deep ingrained
by design or mistake
the fact remains
you can't escape me

hated me for what i'd become
but, i was inside you all along
the monster i turned out to be
hidden in you, too scared to see

everything you hate about me
was part of you all along, i see
i became what you were too scared to be
now you resent me because i'm free

shut your windows, lock your doors
i'm still inside you, part of you
shut out the world and rot inside
the flesh prison that you've designed

too afraid to be yourself
always living for someone else
but, no matter what you say or do
you know i'm still inside of you [comments] => 6 [counter] => 315 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Cancer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Excellent work. I love how the title is, especially how it fits the poem. Reminds me of the song "(sic)".

not repetitive at all. I think we all have the monster inside of us just waiting to drag us under. Another great write man.
