Alone with my demons

It seems I'm completely lost in my broken emotions
My fires burning out, depleting my emotional ocean
How do I keep going?
It seems like nothing's working

My head is underwater
My hand is sticking out
No one seems to bother
My mind is full of doubt

My demons,
They claw at me,
So ferociously.
I try my best to plead,
But they just claw and laugh with glee

"Please,  Oh please let me go.
I can release you from your bonds.
There is no reason to slash me with your claws."

There is no talking.
They continue with their gawking.
My mind is breaking,
So elegantly shaking.

They are persistent with their progression
I wish this would end, A final session.
This torture doesn't seem to stop.
Before I know it, darkness drops.
