Demons lurk in my soul
I feel them
Making me think things,
Want to do things,
That are absolutely awful

They claw at my insides
Begging me to give up
And join them
In their evil
But I refuse to be that person

That little devil inside me
That likes to hurt people
They set fire in my soul
And taunt me
Telling me to be mean
To be vicious...

Sometimes I give in.
And I have to admit,
It feels good.

But I will continue to refuse
The temptation

For being evil
Is far easier
Than trying to do the right thing

Always think before you act
Before you speak
Because your words,
Could be the difference
Between someone’s happiness
And someone’s complete despair
