no one else sees
patiently waits
for darkness to be.

Cleverly hiding
in shadows nearby
as stale humid air
feels muggy yet dry.

Demon of evil
as I can foretell
came from the pits
of damnation's Hell.

I know when you linger
I feel you
anxiously waiting
as I am too.

And as my eyes close
I sense your delight
preparing for war
in the midst of the night.

With cowardly ways
you fight unfair
only to strike
when my mind's unaware.

The strength of your touch
takes my breath from me
as you attack fast
and forcefully.

I've seen you growl
I've heard you hiss
felt the strong force
of your deadly kiss.

I've looked in your eyes
black as coal
stood face to face
and fought for my soul.

I've come to know you
as you well know me
yes, this nightly battle
no one else sees.

Spirit of night
no one else sees
patiently waits
for darkness to be.

Cleverly hiding
in shadows nearby
as stale humid air
feels muggy yet dry.

Demon of evil
as I can foretell
came from the pits
of damnation's Hell.

I know when you linger
I feel you
anxiously waiting
as I am too.

And as my eyes close
I sense your delight
preparing for war
in the midst of the night.

With cowardly ways
you fight unfair
only to strike
when my mind's unaware.

The strength of your touch
takes my breath from me
as you attack fast

I've seen you growl
I've heard you hiss
felt the strong force

I've looked in your eyes

I've come to know you

no one else sees.

Wow... That one was close to home.... I loved this. I liked how you worded things. I was going to pull some of it out but that would make my comment way too long.

Great write. I know I can relate, and am sure their are many others that can as well. I never knew how to descibe what I feel sometimes fighting with my own demons, the ones that denie me sleep. I never thought it could be done, you did it. GREAT WRITE! It was my pleasure to read it.
