Confronting Inner DemonsWritten: September 2nd, 2023
______________________________________________________________
In the depths of one's mind, foes reside.
Within oneself—a war cannot be denied.
Refers to individuals—their internal strife,
Struggles and spurs that shape their life.
In the realm of views and desires so deep,
Fear and doubt bestir—akin to demon creep.
Inner blows waged in the darkest...

Inner DemonsWalls closing in on the darkness that surrounds the very edges of my thoughts as I force a fake smile to appear along my face with eyes clouded insecurely holding my innermost pain… Buried down deeply in the deepest forgotten center of my aging body...

Inner DemonsInner demons tear me apart
Night and day
Today, tomorrow and in the days to come perhaps.
Relentless torment of the soul
Obliterating rational thought
Seeking to show the meanderings and
Peccadilloes of fickle fate
Ennervating desire and drive
Cleverly rationalized by reason
Towards a life of constant strife
Inching steadily...

Making Amends With the Inner DemonsSimply calling me crazy
Would be nothing short of ignorant
And so much more than lazy
‘Cause it’s deeper than that
When my demons aren’t freely
Beating up or running up
A costly fee on my mind
They’ve got a special place to sleep in the back
And just when I...

Inner DemonsShe puts on a brave face
and prepares to wage the battle
she has every day
It's not her fault,
she didn't start this war
But, she'll be damned
if she gives up
She's a fighter
and holds on tooth and nail
But, will her true self ,
or the evil triumph?
At times,

Inner DemonsInner Demons
I stumble in the darkness.
my hands flung wide in mindless panic.
I grasp for something, anything,
but find only empty space and I begin to fall.
I crash against the floor and pain
sears through my weakened body
I cry out in fear, and anguish,
terrified amidst this eternal...

Inner DemonsHave you ever had thoughts that scare even you?
Have you ever had days when you feel extra blue?
Can you understand how I could feel this way?
Even though I have love now will it stay?

Inner DemonsThe howling wind is blowing through the trees.
Reminding me of battles that dropped me to my knees.
Physical pain is endless.No hope for a cure.
My health is failing.Its more ed up than before.
Medication has done more damage than good.
Poisoning my organs,instead of healing them like it...

My Inner DemonsIf only you could see,
The things that roam inside.
They wander and creep from one corner to another.
They want to introduce themselves to you,
But get stopped at the gate.
Mouth wide open,
But unable to pass.
Mind crowded,
Trying to escape.
But out comes nothing.
The...

My Inner Demons Taste Like Cotton Candy...Rising up just to see you fall into the abyss
The bleeding seems to worsen, the same wound
There is no vaccine for a disease like this
The heart has been gagged and to the floor, bound
The bleeding seems to worsen, the same wound
It’s a heavy sound the...

An Artists Inner-DemonsNeurosis imposes osteoporosis through Ouroboros like locusts
Focus is broken so just blitz like Germans in Poland
Anxiety lies to me and starts fighting me in 451 degrees
Mind exploding like Boeing 747 Max's with 157 casualties
Survival is a trial to lift my kind
Wallpaper's yellow, might be more...

Self-Sentenced Solitude :POTD:
Locked within the confines of my mind’s dark cell,
Both convict and captor, a self made hell.
Each thought a shackle, every memory a bar,
Confined by my own mind, a prisoner of psychological scars.
In this self-imposed exile, I am utterly alone,
A solitary figure locked in a world...

Tragedy of Lost TimeIt is hard to see past the tragedy of lost time
When at once you realize its chains have rusted
Away. Where moving on feels more like a crime
Of passion. As if your heart cannot be trusted.
Upon the mid summers day, where happiness you flaunt,
My gaze remains...
