The demons in my head,
Come to the light in segments.
Created by a younger me.
The broken bleeding 11 year old
Who had her virtue,
Her self worth taken.
Created by the mind of a child.
To protect a future her from the same fate.
Astrid the anxious
Demon one.
Questioning ever person.
Their intent,
Their honesty.
Lilith the angry.
Demon two.
The fire that burns inside
With ever unjust,
That can't be changed.
Alloster the protector.
Demon three.
The biggest.
Holding a wall so high around me.
Not even those I love can't get in.
To protect me,
He's isolated me.
Lonely
Grief.
Demon four.
Drowning me in waves.
To only let me breath a moment
Gasping for air.
Before plunging me back,
Deep into her grasp.

Drowning me in waves.
To only let me breath a moment

Before plunging me back,
Deep into her grasp.
