My Demons

I have three demons that dwell inside of me They say that I must listen when they speak So they make themselves known to all my friends. And they tell me I must feed them every week I don’t know how these demons found me For I have never walked along a crooked road. They argue with me every night and day Is there a magic I can use? is there a secret code? Some poets say there’s another me inside, but I have not read anywhere about having three. At night I say my prayers but they wont let me be. I look up for help, but no one hears my plea My true self in me is really quite a bore perhaps Thats why these demons came to me. Now I have plenty friends and I’m popular in school So I’ll just keep feeding them and get along somehow
