Demons

Those demon voices rage within,

Never gone when they go away.

Those demons who followed me long before sin, 

Who hooked to my soul before I could pray.

Demonic drive for violence and pain.

I cannot recall the silence before.

Before the violence fell like rain

And power consumed to my very core.

The power was welcomed to banish the fear.

I still do not miss that feeling today.

Yet, the bargain came with a cost so dear.

A cost that all those around me must pay.

Still, nobody sees the demons inside.

I've cleverly hid them deep, deep within.

They eat at the soul in which they abide.

Patiently waiting for the fight to begin.

and then...
