Why do I even stay When all you bring is pain may be because you don't cast me away but love me even when it's inhumane You always keep my feelings at bay it's something I can never explain you never let me stray even when you're a demon I try to contain

Demon
I grant you to gently peek Careful, for there demons creep I wish you not to blindly seek For I've gotten them to peacefully sleep You may think you can handle My mistake to reflect For you'll never again be stable Your qualities will deflect I've been falsely honest Inside lies Diablo himself You have not yet earnest your way to the shelf Her hands perfectly followed my seams and ripped it apart with my screams

Peek inside (Sonnet II)
Darling, It wasn't my mistake, You trusted me. I was your only friend in the dark, Your little secret, Your little demon, You were so beautiful before you broke. Nobody could ever love some one like you. Now you're worthless. Without your looks you're nothing, Without my voice you're lost, Can't you see darling, Your mind is broken, But I'll take care of you darling, Just do what I say and you will be beautiful again. I love you darling.

Demons
Can it be? Those selfish eyes still hold my desire. They capture my need, and quench my thirst. How can that be? As I linger in the shadows, I capture the sense of her presence, taunting me. She's beside me. Knowing I can't escape her longing stare. I flinch as I sense a tug. I notice I'm moving away from those deep, dark eyes. I reach for her, knowing what she holds is the key to my Pandora's box. I'm awake. I see nothing more than my own heart upon my sleeve. I feel no more, as I get up and look in the mirror. She's right there, looking right at me. Her crooked smile gives it away, and I realize what is real. The true demon... Is me.

Who is She?
What do I do?!?!? Answer me!!!! Don't leave me alone. A nod of the head will suffice. Should I smash the mirror? The face that stares back in dissatisfaction?! Do I blind the eyes, So they can't look into my own?! Do I take the lit candle, place it beneath my face? Burn my skin, shave my face, Change my look entirely? Hello?! Why can't you answer... You don't have the time, or is the answer too painful? It doesn't matter. I have braved many storms. Faced the sea in defiance, Bound my wounds in gauze, and counted the time it takes the sun to set. I can handle you. You who ridicules, charms, then throws my smile away. You can never run! I know your secrets! I know your name! And someday, your taunts, Will fall on deaf ears. I'll look into the mirror, And stare back, At my own lustrous eyes!

Lustrous Eyes
It feels like a thousand needles piercing through your heart, while you are slowly sinking into a bottomless dark hole, fighting your way out gasping for air. Countless thoughts going through your head, struggling to fight your inner demon. Sleepless nights, endless nightmares, tears and heartbreaks, everything seems normal to you.

The heart
"I want take another direction, but no road" I said to a friend "why do you want to do such" she inquired. If only she knew the demons within If only she knew how it all began The troubles, the wars beneath, everyday I come alive sore The pain in my heart, the curse given to it The soul is not within anymore - a living corpse - Something different I want to be Not to bear offsprings, they won't agree Not to be with the opposite 'cos nothing loves Not to shed a tear 'cos I've gone dry Not to eat 'cos there's no flesh to feed To feel my pain, its his only gain The demon within.. Do as you wish but hurt none within reach Anyone who knows me, see for your self My heart and soul hangs at his window pane.

DE-A-MON
He used to walk with life in his stride He used to strut with a heart full of pride These days see him stumbling every so often These days see his eyes vacant and sullen So I asked if there was anything bothering him So I asked what is it that made his light so dim He tarried, then answered with conviction true He tarried before he finally answered, "You..."

Inner Demon
I've heard angels sing but when you let your voice be heard I swear it's like all of heaven's angels singing about letting a soul be reborn Souls. Two souls. We met two years ago on a whim, and we were unseperable Momma said it was because we were twins once before I didn't believe it until I noticed everything we did was similar Then I pushed you away, and the demon came out again, and again until you ran But I know one day we will be okay I just have to forgive myself someday.

for the angel who sang her heart out
Doctor please, Crack open my rib cage and let the light seep in. Take this monster out of me. Scrape it off my bones and tear it out, I can feel it growing larger with every breath I take. Doctor please, this is killing me.

The Monster Inside of me.
Can you hear the cry of my inner self sentenced to die? I'm shouting your name I'm was glad you came Save me from my own hell It's taking me, can't you tell! I can't keep doing this I can no longer swing my fist I feel weak a constant losing streak I need to see you darling Your love so startling But you have walked away Leaving with no words to say I think it's time to take The demons hand, and never awake

HER love
I got mad, made suicidal tweets on twitter, then I get a notification. You, a friend who I haven't talk to for a long time, direct messaged me, and ask me if I was alright. I felt happy in that moment, that someone cared. And that someone was you. You called me after, assured that I do not harm myself. We talked for an hour and i never felt so happy. Thank you, for calling me, Thank you for listening. If you hadn't, I would have scars and, My demon would have been dancing in happiness tonight.

Thank you (for saving me)
my inner demon tells me, that if doesn't want me to die. my inner demon is not a friend, it enjoys seeing me suffer. my inner demon laughs in joy, at the cuts and scars I have. my inner demon pulls me back and forth, the cliff of misery. my inner demon smiles in amusement, when the people I know leave me. my inner demon pour alcohol on my wounds, when I'm crying. my inner demon consumes me entirely, and I to surrender to it. my inner demon holds me captive, and I to to be inflicted of pain for it's happiness.
