Emotional Demons

Emotional Demons These entities are never seen, nor speak a word Though they communicate in a way, never heard They prey upon feelings of fear, anger and pain They find you, when you are weak to fight again These demons seek nothing more than just your mind Like a predator, they just wait and leave nothing behind When least you expect, they come to seek you out To tear apart your confidence and strew it all about Vulnerability is where they call home The human psyche, theirs to call there own Past regrets and sorrows they just love to share Your emotions, will make you painfully aware These internal battles can explode, yet be so silent in reality That invisible armor we wear to protect our vulnerability Showing many stress points from the burdens we carry From all the many internal strife that we chose to bury Each of us carry within, some of these emotional demons Some carry these burdens for the right and wrong reasons Perhaps these just mere echoes within your subconscious mind Lost within reality, in your innermost deepest thoughts combined Try not to give into these emotions, they serve you no good These inner turmoils can teach, if the lesson is understood The conflicts that rage within your external and internal voice Are there to remind you, that you will always have a choice There will always be internal battles that rage on within our minds There will always be some conflicts and confusions of many kinds Truly these are the signs of an inquisitive mind and a open heart Allow these small battles have their day, but never tear you apart
