Im My Own Enemy

My worst enemy is me, the hatred within me has grown, the shame that gives me to look at myself in the mirror that happened with my life that made me get here ... my demons are destroying me and everything I've known and my hopes and dreams and that love that I felt once was destroyed and I am alone with the anger that I place inside me, it has robbed me of my person and the woman I once was. I break slowly every day. I don't think I can take it, I'm going crazy It's not the fault of anyone in this darkness and I don't know where I lost myself in my life Why can't I get away from this darkness? My heart is no longer afraid of those demons. and all I ask is to die, they took everything from me except my spirit that died a long time ago and this pain has become stronger every day ... I need to save myself from the only thing I don't forget is my son that I adore more than life is the only hope that demons can't take away
