Demons Reside Inside of Me

Feeding off my anxiety
Thoughts hidden from eyes to see
Reaking havoc on my sobriety 
Poisonous chords biting at me
Crippling my mentality
Each step forward it's evil leaves no room for equality
I need to ignore the pessimistic reality
Of my mind's morality
Don't you dare smile rotten teeth full of cavities
Try and do what's right will just cause catastrophe 
Your nothing and you think they see
That thier your only family
Without you they'd be set free 
No more nagging agony 
Of the life you dedicated to thee
 you shut up and stop harrassing me 
Your the evil that makes me plea
Thinking the worst of everything 
Always doubting my every belief 
Why do you alwaoys plant the seed
I'm exsorcizing you from my core 
I will succeed and they will stand by me
God will save me from the reaping 
Your darkness has cast upon thee
It's time for you to leave get the  out of me
You no longer have power undoubtedly
I'm taking back my sanity 
And setting myself free 
From the demon that resides in me

Tandy, welcome to Poetry Soup. You have an interesting introspective self-talk going on here, I am rooting for you. "taking back my sanity" is what I have to do many times.
