The Demons in Your Head

The Demons in Your Head
We're the demons in your head

We cause your darkest moments

Your sanity is hanging from a thread

We're your biggest opponents



We haunt your dreams

We're always here but you can't see

They can't hear your screams

We're destroying your sanity



You're trapped

Your happiness is in a cage and we have the key

Your sanity is strapped

You're ours, can't you see?



You can hide

But we will always find you

there is no one on your side

We're stuck to you like glue



You can't get rid of us

We'll make you cry

There is no need to discuss

You'll think your life is a lie



You'll feel guilty

You'll think you're worthless

they'll have pity

you will feel less



You think you don't deserve this

You hate your fake smiles

We shoot and never miss

the hatred you have for yourself goes for miles.

Jd said it better than I could, I agree with her comment completely. Well done. The pictures captures the lines of your poem/story perfectly. I hope those demons are at bay, and you outgrow them over time. Sometimes fear makes Demons a bit bigger than they really are. And fear can be conquered.

Smiles, Kevin

You've captured the trauma of feeling like you have demons in your head... the destructive voices we sometimes hear telling us dark things that make us miserable. I hope that those of us who hear these destructive voices of negativity can find ways to distinguish between truth and fiction, and silence the voices of fiction and lies by ignoring them and weakening them by doing good and thinking pos...

You've captured the trauma of feeling like you have demons in your head... the destructive voices we sometimes hear telling us dark things that make us miserable. I hope that those of us who hear these destructive voices of negativity can find ways to distinguish between truth and fiction, and silence the voices of fiction and lies by ignoring them and weakening them by doing good and thinking positively.
