I went looking,
hunting for monsters
which in fact were never there.
I found demons
that didn't belong to me
and were none of my business.
I spent a long time looking outside
when really I should have turned inward
and faced those demons inside of me.
My whole life
I have been running away.
Until today
I stopped and faced the inner demons.
Funnily enough
they weren't so scary
once I was facing them head-on.

For lots of people, I don't think they are actual demons.
It may be a bit like - one was worried about using the internet because it had '.daemon' in the site name. That's going too far, I think!
haha
