Demons
hello?
do you see me standing here,
helpless and terrified,
slowly fading away?
or am I invisible.
on my own and alone,
just me against my demons,
one on one?
oh god I hope not.
I don't think I can face them by myself,
too ugly and painful for one small girl to handle.
do you hear me?
well listen dammit, look harder!
I'm right here and I'm scared
and I need you, all of you, to help me
because I can't fight the demons all alone!
hello...anyone???
