The demon inside
one of us says yes
and the other says no.
but what can i do when there is more than
two of them in my head.Like a restless chatter
ongoing, never ending, always repeating.
Die today or live for the next.
I can't decide it's too much to be caged
inside me ill implode. My soul is breaking
with every breath of this nightmare demon
waiting for the perfect moment to attack and strike me down.
it takes me to places that i never knew existed, places that
i didn't want to know existed.
I can feel it wearing me down, with every lash at my heart
its escaping but I have tied it with silver and iron rope
there is not much left i can do,
but fight it with my naked mind.
