Demons

Days pass by like a blur

Morphing into each other

The same events occur on replay

Motions become thoughtless

 

New struggles to get through every moment

A different thread breaks as easily as a snowflake falling

Every new foot print creates a new pain

Icicles melt dripping down my body

 

The world outside gets colder chilling my heart

The world around me lays lifeless and dead

Options and choices fade away with each breath

Dreams and hopes set down with the sun

 

Happiness and joy floats away with the whales

Sorrow and fear consumes like the wind

Being here each day feels like an endless hurricane

Nowhere to run and hide from this demon inside

 

Looking in the mirror has become an enemy

Seeing myself has become a great obstacle

Knowing I’m still in this body burns

Anger and hatred run through my veins

 

Each passing night the stars gleam brighter

The sky above us grows darker

The sun rises signaling a new day

Water runs over me, but still leaves the filth

 

No place to go to hide from this mess

Nowhere to run away to be safe

Stuck with these demons inside me

Stuck with the demons all around me

It’s hard to battle the demons that cross our path or our thoughts
But we can try to keep them under-control by
Never allowing the demons to take control of us by seeking the light
I must congratulate you on this piece
through you words i was able to feel the
sadness axity,the pain of lonliness
And so much more your words allowed me the reader
to grasp the essences of your poem
Brilliant writing

Sometimes you can't defeat the demons, but you can learn to control them.

A very dark write filled with mixed emotions of anger, hatred, fear and sorrow. The want to break free from a world where there is nothing but darkness and the demon inside of you, which you hate.
'Looking in the mirror has become an enemy
Seeing myself has become a great obstacle
Knowing I’m still in this body burns
Anger and hatred run through my veins'
This stanza is very powerful and the whole poem revolves around it, explaining your hatred for such a world and the reason you do not want to live in it.
Nice way of expressing your torment, good write.

Hard to defeat demons. I believe we need to learn to control them and maybe we can be OK. The poem description is amazing. The battle to find peace in a life is never easy. A outstanding poem. Thank you.
