DEMONS

DEMONS

Shadows creeping up the walls,

In a windowless room.

All around me cackles and calls,

But these voices come from whom?

I am in here by myself, alone,

Have my demons finally found me?

Defenseless, I am on my own,

It’s as if a thousand arms are tugging not letting me be.

The burdens and blame I’ve brought to myself,

I must live with the shame,

And the pain that I delve,

No longer is this a fucking game.

Disgusted by what I feel,

I run to the sink to splash water upon my face,

I raise my head up to look in the mirror if my demons reveal…

And there’s no one there that should be in my place…
