Inner Demons

Have you ever had thoughts that scare even you? Have you ever had days when you feel extra blue? Can you understand how I could feel this way? Even though I have love now will it stay? Can the dream filled nights and happy mornings Continue this way without becoming boring? My inner demons are my own worst enemy And it keeps me from being who I wanna be I've struggled for years to kill them off But it hasn't worked, they still scoff So I try to assume a semi-normal life And try to be the best, most loving wife My husband loves me and I love him With his love my life will never be grim The demons aren't gone, they're deep inside But my heart and soul I bear with pride For I made it through, despite the odds Without help from medicine or Gods To those out there, who've struggled to breathe Or had to lie down or fall on your knees Remember my words and know this much Love can conquer all with it's gentle touch
