The Creature

**"I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend." ** - The Creature---------------------"Most nights I still wake to a cold sweat coating my quilted body; Nightmares of the past coming back to haunt me, to remind me of the creature I am. The freak of nature forced to life by a mad-man intent on playing God. Not only do I remember the cruelty of Father but the harm I caused in those early days of life. Tossed into the world without knowing the first thing to it- Like a child I ventured out, but in my naivety I caused harm."Garrett, A name not given to the creature by his Father, but the creation of the man nonetheless. A nameless man born into the world against his will, stitched together with the stolen parts of those recently deceased. He is the result of a madman with a dream to control life itself. Yet when his creation rose it filled him with dread.From the very moment he was born The Creature knew, felt, he was very different. Very wrong. As if his soul, if he indeed had one, was never meant to walk the mortal world. Yet there he stood; Breathing, alive, yearning to explore this newfound life. However had he known the sorrow his life would bring to so many, himself included, perhaps he would have ended it himself long ago. Even now he contemplates the idea of returning to a slumbering, stitched together corpse.. But it's the small beauties he was taught by a woman that keeps him going.Not a lover, but a mother in her own way. After the carnage his actions had brought upon the village of his birth he ran. God, if there really was one, could only tell you for how long he ran. How long he searched for a sanctuary. Somewhere he could let himself be forgotten! Then, in the darkest woods he'd ever entered, he was met with the second most gentle touch he'd ever received.
