Demons

By Goodnight_Moon

People say they have demons
Alas, that isn't true
For you do not have demons
The demons have you
You spiral out of control
Doing things you will regret
A black abyss fills your soul
The demons home is set
They use your body
In which they hide
To keep the real you
Locked up inside
