Fighting Demons

*Sitting here All alone Or at least I think I am alone But really I am surrounded Surrounded by the demons Demons of memories old and new. I am struggling Struggling to hold them off Holding my blade tightly Occasionally swinging it wildly. Please leave me alone I cannot take anymore The fight is leaving me fast. Blood is running from Not from them but from me Wounds both old and new Being torn open The ground is red. Things grow dim Gonna just lie down I give up Let the darkness overtake me.*
