Demons
I have demons trapped inside my head.
They tell me I deserve all the trouble.
They say that I should be gone and dead.
I ponder all the words I have read,
But I know the reason for my struggle:
I have demons trapped inside my head.
There is only one path where I tread.
Some say the ways that exist are double.
They say that I should be gone and dead.
I see only one option ahead
To spite the voices of my mind’s rubble.
I have demons trapped inside my head
That tell me my life is but a thread.
All of these thoughts that I fail to juggle-
They say that I should be gone and dead.
Because of these thoughts written in red,
I will live my life inside this bubble.
I have demons trapped inside my head
They say that I should be gone and dead.
