Demons


Dear Demons of my past,

 

You can no longer haunt me 

You have no controll over me now

I have grown and I have seen who I truly am 

You no longer have a place in my mind 

That little girl you once haunted is gone 

I go by a different name now 

Your taunts do not face me anymore 

The blade well never again touch my skin 

Your words have no power over me 

I now take your words and use them against you 

I use your words to create beauty not pain 

And every time you threaten to come back 

I'll use your words and actions 

And create 

Create the beauty I see and the pain that hides behind it 

I'll create a world with you 

 

No longer affraid, 

A.R.B
