Inner Demons

Every day when I wake up,
my heart feels so heavy as if
someone has imposed weight on it
which I am not able to handle...

The burden of my inner demons
is haunting my mind like a ghost,
It feels as if the blade is slicing
through my skin and ripping me apart...

I am trapped in the mess
of my own suffocating thoughts,
which I can not escape
even if I try because
they are eating me alive...

I have to break these invisible chains
which are binding me with the misery,
because I no longer want to sit with
my demons which are heading
me towards my end...
