My Demon

Thoughts of loneliness,
of despair..
Nowhere to go,
no one to care..
I slip into my room,
turn off the light..
Feeling the pressure build,
the knife by my side..
I turn on my phone,
thinking to say goodbye..
I catch a post,
letting me know I'm not alone in my fight..
I spot my demon,
crouching on my window ledge..
I look to him,
and smile..
I'm not going anywhere,
yet..
