My Demons

Pain that I know if  I let out it will hurt you.
Love that will ensure that my dreams do not come true.
Monsters that will hurt me and the people I know.
If I let out these monsters, I'll be letting you go.
Silence that will consume my life if I unlock its cage.
Fear that will turn into unstoppable rage.
These demons make me who I am but they also scary.
If I let them out they'll attack so I must be extra wary.
