13 Ways of Looking at Your Demons

I
We all have our demons
Prying open our hearts
Trying to escape

II
Just take a swig
Of the poison
Let your soul cry

III
The anger you poses
Feeds their energy

IV
A piece
Of you
Will soon
Vanish

V
We all have our moments of weakness
For once
Let your sadness overcome you
Let a demon consume you

VI
A snake bites venom
That’s how it feels
The poison slowly running through
Your worthless body
Swollen but alive
It will coil around you
And watch you suffocate

VII
Take the devils hand
No longer can anyone shove you
Into a locker
You have the power
To let your rage roar

VIII
Work with each of them
But don’t let it compel you
You must hold on
To the small amount
Of humanity

IX
Feel the fire
Burning inside yourself
Cooking you internally

X
Look at your demon
As your demonic twin
“Help me sister”
Reach inside yourself
And help her claw her way out

XI
Taste the blood flow
From out of your barbed wired jaw
Feel the pain
Of rubbing salt into a fresh wound

XII
Your demons darling
They want out

XIII
Set them free
Before you pay the
Gruesome price
Of insanity
Shadowing the sun
