I'm afraid
These monsters I push out
The demons i lock out
Pointless.
I run and hide,
Wanting to cut me with their blades,
Pain and blood.
They found me.
After year after year,
Same song and dance,
Pointless.
Worthless.
I want to scream but,
Nothing.
Wanting to run but I can't move.
Help! They have me.
Torture and years of hate
My inner demons are never gone.
Lord knows I've tried
How much longer til I am free?
No more scars to make me who I am
For light and beauty to show through
For me to be who I am meant to be
But for now, my demons are here to play.
