Boy In the Dark

I hear a boy crying in the dark. Demons around him with teetyh like a shark. They climb inside in his head and scream in his mind. They spit in his eyes so the boy is blind. Then they grab a hold of the boy's soul and rip it apart and open up his chest to eat out his heart. I tried to tell them "let the boy be", then i start to see that the boy is me.
