Silence? Not Anymore...
August 27, 2011
Why is it that when we are surrounded by silence,
It is the only thing that screams at us?
I want for the demons in my mind to be quiet
And not tempt me with their voices and thoughts
Of how things would have been better if I were dead.
I want to be able to overcome these demons...
Why can’t I?
I don’t want them, nor did I ask for them
And yet there they are;
Trapped and making themselves known
Inside the mind that once was my own.
What did I do to allow them in?
I don’t know...
