Everyone has inner demons that they battle.
They can come in many shapes and forms; anger, depression, anxiety, mania, rejection, hate and the interminable list goes on.
However, it's up to us to figure out what combats those demons.
What eases the pain when it all seems gone?
What do you do when hope seems to be lost?
How do you find the hidden answers to the perplexing questions in life?
What is it that'll help you through the boulders and knives?
For some, it can be music that tunes out the agony.
For the Artistic, it can be the colors that outgray all the woes.
The Athletes can work off their apathy
Writers can express their journey from the shadows
It may seem that the one that appears in the looking-glass may be weak
Yet, we can not judge the skin that deceives us
For even reflections can be misleading
Deep down, there is a spark waiting to be ignited
Underneath the sore eyes and withering heart, yes, it's there waiting
However, some have one candle that can blaze all the difference
One being that acts a radiant sunlight
One that inflames the bitterness
Though, that type of light is hard to sight
But, if you look for the rainbow in every situation
And aim for the stars when in doubt
Only then shall you find;
The light that guides you away from the demons
