Devils

By FearlessDragon

All the devils inside

Scratching, clawing to my brim


Not much left...

To give...


Hold it in,

HOLD IT IN!


My heart is a wasteland

Of failed memories


CUTTING ME DEEP!

Deep in my sleep


Wake up to nothing...



Repeat...

    Very relatable piece for many; we all have demons, some more vicious than others. I often wonder how some ever sleep peacefully - XXOO Scholar

    Nice piece, you did an excellent job at capturing exactly what it feels like to be kept awake by the insomnia demons.

  • A former member wrote: Very good job way to show emotion. I am deeply sorry if you have actually had to live with that kind of pain.
