Been a minute since I felt like Steve,
A longer minute, since I wrote like this.
Happy, is what I need,
Small, how I usually feel.

My Demons by: Luis V
My Demons torment me by night
My Demons friends with me by day
My Demons can’t escape them
My Demons I hear their voices
My demons like to come out and play
Don't worry they won't bother you they are only after me
In fact let them braid your hair, they are great at that
Do you need your make up done, they have that down pact
If a picture is worth a thousand words
A poem is worth a thousand pictures
A thousand realities lie in carefully crafted lines
To some, the word alone brings feelings of peace
Tell me a secret.
Tell me something no one else knows.
Tell me something no one else understands.
Tell me a secret.
Come here. Closer. Closer.
Do you wanna know a secret?
The nightmares don't end when I turn on the light,
My thoughts prevent me from my rest in the night,
So harsh and so cruel not a good thing to say,
They leave me so nervous to take on the day,
My eyes are blurring and tears are falling
As night passes by sleeplessly.
The demons of my waking hours
Are detaching from the shadows
Sharpening old weapons.
Life changes and everything about me is new.But there's one thing that's always stayed the same...I still hate myself the same as yesterday,and I still think of death like it's unavoidable.
People always leave me
Eventually everyone gets tired of the girl who is depressed for no reason
I do
And if I'm not cutting
I'm not eating
And if not that
There's a smile on lips
Cheerful, warm, loving
But these two rows of teeth
Are the only barrier
Keeping my screams from escaping
Help!
Can't you hear me?
The screams roll like waves
I do not know what she is to me.
I cannot say how I feel.
She’s like a pebble stuck in the back of my mind.
How can I tell her how I feel?
With my body pressed close against her frame,
We all have demons inside
And that's not to say that
We can't truly be fixed
See, lately I've found that
Even the most beautiful
People have them
And even the ones you
My inner demons are dark and vast,
Some live in the present, some in the past.
You can only hide them for so long,
But they always peak their head,
From the trapped doors in my memories,
If you dared take a peak inside my twisted mind,
then you might understand what it's like to be destroyed by yourself.
Depression consumes, my thoughts could kill --
my inner demons smirk as they corrupt my mind.
Lying
on my back,
looking up
above, two angels
dark and light
hands extended
I know the choice I'm to make
but am unable to see
which is the dark
which is the light
