Hiding my demons

My eyes started drifting
Dreaming unfocused
Feelings started crawling
Climbing upwards
And as it consumed me
And you took notice
I lost my grip
And fell down
I sank deep
Into my pit
With this time
No way back
And I shouldn't no I wouldn't
I couldn't look you in the eyes
And you weren't to blame
it wasn't your fault
I just didn't want my demons to lay their eyes on you
I just didn't want my demons to be known to you
Not because our bond is fragile
Or because we have no trust
But because I felt weak
I felt powerless I felt worthless
And I didn't want to see the disappointment in your eyes
