Your demons within you

The monsters that live inside of you

By Heather HeckermanPublished 17 days ago • 1 min read

How easy it was for them to whisper into your ear,

Filling your head full of the lies that your demons want you to hear.

Forcing you to push away everyone that you hold dear,

By playing off of the things that you fear.

They found a bitch that is the worst of the worst,

then they convinced you that you should believe her first.

They put shit in your head and made it seem real,

ultimately you gave them the power they needed to change how you feel.

you stopped looking at me with love in your eyes,

Because they made you believe the lies.

Now all I see when you're looking at me is disgust, anger, shame,

Because your demons told you that I am to blame.

I sit her and watch you and your demons plotting the end of me,

Because its my death that will set them free.

So no matter how much I beg you to stop, to take back the horrible things you say,

you just mock me and remind me that God isn't going to answer me no matter how much I pray..

So you keep on attacking me until you deliver to your demons everything that they need,

Because you yourself have been begging to be freed.
