Defeating the Demons
Dark clouds
overhead
as fear and
worry
cloud the
sky
The inner self
is threatened
by dark demons
The sweet rain
of sexuality
and light cutting through
the clouds
will help to
defeat the demons
those inside as well as
those outside
As the sky becomes clear
and the dark clouds become
no more than a memory
We can once
more feel
the warmth if
the sun
We can once more
experience
peace
After the long, long
night of our souls
We view the light
shining on the waters
Even though we
don't fully understand
why joy has come
We welcome the change
And watch thin
wisps of dark clouds
being blown away
they recede
into the distance
Our confidence
returns
and we face
the future with
shining eyes
