The lighted gateway to the spirits of other men waits,
Ever facing the inner demons that dwell in the writer's heart,
Screaming unheard by others, for words still left unwritten.
Down, down to the Earth,
hide your shameful face.
What is a man without grace?
But an Animal
insane and base.
Fight your inner demons
with your mind.
Free yourself to fly
Up, up to the sky.

Bane
Whisper
Torments soul
Discarriating
The black sheep to the depth level
Inner demons attack the victim without mercy
Fleeing after extracting the vital force, leaving an unanimated being

Down
Daily
Thoughts unflag
Life disappointments
Winning inner demons voices
Replaying the same tune in the mind as a scratched disc
Leaving a deep feeling of unworthiness and rejection, toilsome to overcome

the world is empty, lifeless, grey
lost in it's amortal way
never find that for which we search
depression finds a place to firmly perch
falling from imperfect grace
grinning at our slowing pace
our inner demons laugh at our perception
based upon our self deception
Form:
With frayed emotions
the whisperer in the night
its paper-thin wings
combating inner demons
- release your anxiety
Dejected psyche
it's not a computer game
prove the demons wrong
deny their dark existence
- quiet with your inner thoughts
Haunted by the ghosts of my failed ambitions
too late to even start again
so intimate now with my inner demons
soon they will become my friends
drowning in a sea of liquor
my lungs filled with liquid despair
who will know me when my world comes crashing around me
and who will even care
We are all monsters
It burns like the fires of hell inside us.
We are composed of many evils.
Many Devils.
Many Demons.
Why are we monsters?
Because we all have our own inner demons.
For the people to say that everyone can be pure is a lie.
We have our own little faults.
Our own little problems.
The only cure is death.
My soul is searching for the light,
all I need is to see you tonight.
I've been holding on,
but I'm letting go,
as these inner demons take control.
I've lost the battle, one by one.
Staring at the sky, reaching towards the sun.
They've taken over, and I can't fight back.
Tonight's the night, I'll never return back.
I’m retired now. These days I’ve got it made.
I sit on my porch and drink lemonade.
You will never see my nerves get rattled,
Or my disposition become embattled,
No, not even if my conscience tattled.
With these concerns, I am never saddled.
My personal assistant writes the screamin’s
Of my staff of personal inner demons.
Let your mind reset
Let go of all the small things
Release the big things
Unwind and enjoy
Take time to smell the sweetness
That life offers us
One day to the next
Release your inner demons
On paper with pen
Then throw it away
Creating a clean new slate
Setting a new tone
Living your best day
May not be in Italy
Ohio's a start

Falling into a fitful sleep
I tossed and turned throughout the night
writhing in agony
I was battling with my inner demons
My husband woke up
and could see I was troubled
he put his arm round my waist to comfort me
I breathed in deeply
quivered
then let out an enormous fart
my inner demon had finally been released
oh what a relief!

Her father loved her most when she did exactly what he wanted.
She became a perfect daughter, perfect wife, perfect smile, perfect kids.
Yet inner demons haunted her all the while. They mocked and taunted.
"You're a failure, not good enough." Over time, she lost the will to live.
Her husband came home to a perfect house, as she swung upon the rafters.

For all the lies that are forever going to haunt me
For all the words of love that I thought i knew the meaning
For all the joy that I've yet to feel inside me
For all the hate that one day will destroy me
For all the signs of fate that I have failed to see
For all the times I have ignored my destiny
For all the inner demons that soon I will set free
For all the freedom I will never be free
Three nights in a row, exhausted, no sleep
Catatonic state, inner demons shall creep
Dose (Was I asleep?) jerk violently awake
Heavy pressure on chest, the weight of heartbreak
Arms spread; you were nailed to the living room wall
Struck dumb; I could not heed your faint, pleading c...
***Succubus is the female form of Incubus, demons believed to torture their sleeping victims by lying on there chests
lost in a daze
i need some pills
wake me up
before i get killed
inner demons won't leave me
just go away
these feelings inside me
will there ever be a day
when i realize you're gone
nothing to do
realize i'm done
what am i going through
need you beside me
to walk me by
need you to hold me
so i don't die
the dream's not over
not an easy path
need you more than ever
for a warm, soft hand

I thank God for all my blessings, and all that will come.
All though these angels are hard to see where I'm from.
Help me conquer and surpass all of my inner demons.
I'm willing to let you lead, as these hard times deepen.
For so many years, I have walked and lived so blindly.
Sitting and waiting for all your blessings to find me.
Never did I realize, they were here all along.
I've found you, and I admit that I was wrong.
Did I create these inner demons named traumas to one self? Disappointments, depression, abandonment, daddy issues, mommy issues, insecurities, rape of one’s mind, body and soul only to recreate these unhealed illusions that often comes and goes like the weather.
In my consciousness oftentimes one is told to let go and let a higher source take these burdens of traumas to be healed or set free one’s emotions of unhealed traumas.
A bird in a cage; your inner demons will rage
A bird in the air your dreams cannot pair
A bird on a ledge; your losing your competitive edge
A bird in the tree is no fait accompli
A bird in the nest; all aspirations laid to rest
A bird in the mound; your tactics are not sound
A bird on the pond; your fleeting visions will abscond
A bird on the ground; all hope is not yet drowned
A bird in the hand; your gratuities are panned
Letting go bygone the bitter
Feelings of unrequited love seeker
False friends that broke and shatter
Meaning of friendship keeper
Allowing that joy flows freely
Without imposed restrictions
Embracing a new life that lively
Gives wings to fly without limitations
Looking forward seeking the light
Somber days are buried in the past
Inner demons disappeared in the night
Appearing the peaceful thoughts that last

angst
intese anger
such a wimp
been played
betrayed
nothing but a shoulder
to cry on.
lost soul
forgotten....
undiscovered ridges
under my skin
sharp sting
gliding slowly
lost to be found
wrung sheets
no sleep
this is what you made me
what i have become
building inside
the inner demons let
loose......
Let the games begin
