At the end of the day, he waits for sleep.
Bare, he is no longer a monster, but another man with a troubled mind.
Closing his eyes, he wraps one arm around the only reason he stays.

Both are just disturbed.
Two minds working as one.
The monster, the man, and malice close their eyes and slip into to darkness together for the first and last time.
