Lily Mayfield Poet Rhyme

Demons In My Sleep

I'll close my eyes
Just to open them wide

Bloodshot eyes in the morning
I couldn't stay asleep
With the demons constantly roaring
Inside my mind, they roam deep

I'll try agian tomorrow
This time I'll bring a knife
They feed off of my sorrow
But they won't take away my life

One day I'll find peace
Here on Earth
I won't truly decease
I'll have a rebirth
