Dear Monster,

You're probably wondering why I'm writing this to you.  For a long time, I wouldn't even acknowledge you exist.  I was so afraid of you.  It was easy in the daytime; surrounded by people, I could easily drown you out, but at night, alone, in the dark, you'd come creeping up to me, a montage of the days events flashing before my eyes, warped by your twisted and paranoid sensibilities.

I admit that you used to have quite the hold on me, but I'm growing stronger, aren't I?  I can feel it.  Where it used to take all my mental force to hold you at bay, I can now do with a simple thought.  You're inventions and plots and worries are paper thin and get more and more ridiculous.

I bet you're seething in frustration as your machinations steadily lose power.  I can hear your howl of rage as I easily laugh off your accusations.  You'll never know where I've found this strength.  You'll never understand, you poor twisted soul.  Soon, you'll atrophy and fade away.  I will have forgotten you.

To quote a well-loved heroine:  You have no power over me.
Sincerely,
The Victor
For #Letters-To-Myself's cpntest: Letters to...a monster.
I took it a bit figuratively and wrote to an inner monster.
Hope you like it!
