Facing Inner Demons

Where do the Demons come from That reside in us from deep within? Where do their evil powers lie? Were they always dwelling there Or did I somehow invite them in? Haunting you…Haunting me Did I commit some Cardinal sin? Will someone, somewhere someday Help me to drive them out To free me from their evil whims To allow me to ever live without? They are always, always, there it seems Pushing me to the verge of the ever after And I struggle daily just to cling To the rafters of myself and what I’ve been To hold on to the tangible And not get swept away Into the demon’s nothingness Where I’ll cease to forever have been.
