Resisting
So, demon then, think not you’ve won
I’m not your prisoner, you hold no key
I chose my options with careful thought
I will not be yours, rather, be set free
Know this for certain, you have no hold
No more to tempt me, I will not sway
I’ll find my way to escape the cold
But, not through you, no not today
As I will live, I’ll struggle too
But I will never give in to you
