Inner demon

A poem on the lonely, pained heart

People used to hurt the mind
Like a blade to the skin
Cutting through
Hurts to do and hurts to feel
Endless hurt
And hurt I do

Sitting on the window sill
Looking out
Seeing all
Loneliness lies inside
From my heart
I call

Love inside I try to feel
Love for them
And me
Only emptiness inside
Just emptiness
I see

Dark dark demons
Inside me
Crawl
Thrive on hurt
And Give hurt
To all

Dwell inside me
Dwell
And feel
Feel the hurt
And suffer
Feel

Keep it inside me
Keep it
Trapped
Blanket of secrets
In it
Wrapped

Poisonous venoms
In me
Seeping
Burnt emotions
My heart
Weeping


With each attempt
My body
Mends
Mend it will
And Waits
To end
