The monster



The Monster
The monster in me is not my lust
That can be satisfied so the rest
Neither the monster is the greed
God is there to give all the feed

The monster in me is not my pride
When it high, use my heart as a guide
As I was told by my mom
Heart is the place where God reside

I am far from Gluttony, sloth and envying
Then what’s the monster in me
Am I the monk with the rob
If no sin in me , am I the God ?

Chasing love throughout the life
With all those girls and with Twitter bride
And suddenly today I found the rogue
When she said don’t raise the fake hope

Killing this monster is my only healing
The monster is none but my feelings
These feelings creates all those sins
Lust, pride; gluttony,sloth, greed, wrath & envy
