Evil Inside Me

A Poem

I have an evil inside me

One you cannot see

One that won't let me be

I was born this way

What else can I say

Now it is time to pay

The choices I have made

The people I have betrayed

The ones I left feeling afraid

I will do whatever it takes

To repair all my mistakes

At least for my family's sake

I have the devil on my shoulder

He gets louder as I get older

Slowly making my heart colder

I am forced to sell my soul

For this life I can't control

To return the happiness I stole

I will never be free

There is nowhere to flee

I will burn for eternity
