The Devil Is Knocking
Anthony Apr 2019
The devil is knocking
I hear him calling my name
Someone save me
Before it’s too late
He’s standing over me laughing
The people behind him are clapping
I can’t escape their taunts
Maybe they’ll go away if I’m gone
The laughing gets louder
The devil speaks with somber
I’m not ready to let go of this life
But I gave him all the power
I want to escape  these demons
But their grip is so tight
I can’t seem to find the light
If god hears my cry where is he
My faith has gone missing
I feel the end is near
I wish I could get over my fears
I wish I could forget my past
I wish I could forget all the years and not be so sad
I wish you were here
I wish I didn’t still love you
Maybe one day I can let go
For now I’m trapped in this perpetual hell

Anyone there?
Anthony Apr 2019
He was bruised
Battered in his heart
His only Love was so far apart
How could she do this
It doesn’t make sense
Now he knows it was all just pretend
His thoughts torment him
His self esteem low
Is there a way for him to finally grow
Sometimes he thinks about suicide
He feels it’s the only way
The truth eventually finds him
Can someone please convince him to stay
I think about it often
Disgusted by this thought
I hide in my own mind
I have a broken heart

— The End —
