What’s lost is found

In silent sound

That whisper in your ear.

Questioning the world around

Standing heavy on hollow ground

Feeding on your deepest fear.

Demons speak

Intent to make you weak

So find the demon’s name.

Your cross to bear,

In a world not fair,

Play the demon’s game.

The truth you hold

Will make you bold

And stronger than before

As reality lies

And confidence dies

Battle the demons of lore

Play the demon’s game

Find the demon’s name

Gain strength in silent sound

As they whisper in your ear

Feeding from your deepest fear

What’s lost will soon be found.

About the Creator

Patrick O'Connor

I often end up not being the one that writes my stories. My characters do. They always find ways to surprise me.

I started with quotes, which turned into poetry, and now I'm working on novels.
