Chasing Demons

by brokenbeings

I can't chase my demons, they've tied me too far down. God would not forgive me, I don't deserve his crown. What if I walked into the ocean? If I mysteriously drowned. Police would look halfhearted, but life would keep up in this town. See, I'm not important. Not even I want me around. In life I serve no purpose. I'm better in the ground. I hold to regret like a moth to a flame, and I am hell bound. I cut my heart on broken glass as a shot of hate is downed. I tried to impress my reflection, but he shook his head and frowned. I hope you understand now and I know how it sounds. But these are my opinions and they control me now.
