Black Shadows

Silent echoes, streaming through my ears, The screams sound so real; But they're only there for me to hear. Shadows moving behind my eyes, I try to speak, But the truth is not spoken, only lies. Inner demons, tearing me apart. My body is going to collapse, With one final kick to my heart. There it goes, my life out the window. I try to hold on, I try to scream. But I met my match, my demons are overflowing Like a stream. I go to school, trying to hide my true feelings inside. It's a new day, but the demons refuse to leave, My pain just won't go away, they are determined to hide. They see all of the marks, all of the signs, If they only asked how I felt, My demons, they would find. But for now, they will remain hidden behind my eyes, throughout my toes. The only thing you will see from them; Is my pain, hidden in their Black Shadows....
