Demon

I’ve got this demon Living in my head, It makes me have horrid thoughts Mainly wishing I was dead. I hear these voices Deep in my mind and soul, I try to stop them But fear I’m losing all control I’ve tried to block it out It’s taken up residence, Full of fear Losing self confidence. It’s screaming louder My thoughts , no longer mine, I tried my best to shut it down I just ran out of time. I’ve got this demon Living in my head, It’s makes me have these horrid thoughts Mainly wishing I was dead. I hear these voices Deep in my mind and soul, I tried to stop them But now I’ve lost control….

Elegantly put how dealing with trauma goes! Healing doesn't mean the pain never existed. It means the damage doesn't control our lives.

You might want to have Ozzy perform an exorcism. I understand he's Catholic. Seriously though, many have these persistent thoughts of self destruction. I hope this poem is just fiction. Life has many possibilities

Trauma is a heavy burden. Climbing back up from the depths is hard but we keep going…
