Temptation
It's all around me
the thoughts the fears the want
to put myself in a peaceful place
just to rest my demons from the
control they have over me.
Battle the demons the alcohol the drugs
the addiction the accident.
Find that safe place to clear your thoughts.
Acting on temptation is not the answer,
it's a temporary coping fix
and it works for the time being.
Battle the demons, win the battle.
Manage the emotion, be assertive to the demons within.
Where is that safe place I have yet to find?
The mind is an evil place at times definitely not a safe place
for now.
If I only could take control and win the battle the
demons would disappear.....
Have Faith
