Array ( [sid] => 68552 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Demons [time] => 2004-10-23 12:12:23 [hometext] => they just wont leave me alone... [bodytext] => My demons will never leave,
They stay around to make sure I grieve,
Following me around like a deadly mist,
Making sure my heart never again gets kissed.

No matter what I do I can’t ever escape,
I will forever suffer pillage & rape,
Not from that of a manly form,
But from something which causes much more harm.

I see my demons they keep my awake,
Promising that my soul they will take,
Their voices haunting my once stable mind,
Searching for scraps of sanity to find.

There is no way that they can be killed,
Not by murder of with an iron will,
I have tried so many times before,
But they just laugh & toss me to the floor.

I can’t always see them but I feel their breath,
It smells so rotten & indicates death,
Most of my life is spent it total fear,
As I can hear them always screaming into my ear.

Telling me that my time is almost upon me,
I must die as that’s the way it’s meant to be,
I have no choice I no longer deserve to live,
That they have a gift of eternal hell to give.

Demons have been with me most of my life,
Sometimes their wicked words live in a knife,
Begging me to pick it up & end it all,
I can hear them behind me wishing me to fall.

My Demons

Making sure my heart never again gets kissed.

Not from that of a manly form,
But from something which causes much more harm.

Beautiful I loved it. It showed shear fear of depresssion and how you can not get rid of your sadness, and how the thoughts of death creep up in your mind.
