Demons

This was inspired by a comment replied on a poem by the awesome poetess Heart_of_Stone. It was about Demons you have and need to settle yourself with. I presumed she was talking about her own. I was wrong and it struck me it was me who struggled to come to terns with the Demons in my heart and life.  
Thank you H O S.for the inspiration
Love and light

Demons  
 
Why do they come out in quiet times, like when I'm on my own, trying to get to sleep at night or when I'm writing on my phone  
 
Gnawing deep inside my head, they make me curse my life, why can't we all be friends, instead having all this strife  
 
I try to make peace with them, beg for some peace of mind, ask them to leave me, if they'd be so kind  
 
But they know all the buttons, the know how to cause me pain, it doesn't seem they're happy, until my tears just fall like rain  
 
I never know when they will appear one moment I am fine, next there's a huge black cloud, for the longest time  
 
Demons who live inside my head, why can't we just be friends, it's time we made peace together, I hope my nightmare ends  
 
Please let us make a pact, just let this broken poet free, let's be friends and settle this and please come down for Tea  
 
Ron
 
The poem that inspired this is called "The ugliest person in the world"
