Demons Within Us All

As the blackened sky draws nearer,

I can wash away all the lies and

stop pretending.

I can be bare faced.

I don't have to keep up this façade,

That conceals some of the feelings that I have.

I don't have to tell people that I'm not okay,

And wait for their unsure response of how to help.

No expectations need to be fulfilled.

I can let my demons loose inside my safe walls,

And

No one can question it because

They don't know what lurks inside my head.


To others I seem like I have it all together,

But,

Really I'm a mess at times.

I don't want anyone to worry

Or

To feel like they have to help because

I am truly the only one that can slay my personal devil.

Everyone is fighting a battle

You know nothing about,

Beware and

Don't scare.
