"Life is a good Journey"


She woke up feeling okay

Her Demons where resting

When they wake up it will

Be the scariest part of the day. 

They never wake up at the 

same time anymore. 

She started to fall asleep in class.

Her demons woke up and told her no.

She didn't get any sleep from them

Last night but they don't care. 

They started to insult her and making 

Her feel like a failure and worthless.

When she got home she knew what to

Do to get them to shut up. 

She took the blade and smashed it. 

Was this the time she become strong?

Everyone has told her she could do it 

This time she did do it. 

The Demons got worse only because 

They where not being fed.

"How long can they go on now?"

The name calling by the demons got 

Worse till she was rising above them.

3 weeks later she had no more Demons

She had finally beat them.

She was proud of herself for being strong.

She was finally happy with herself.

Her scars would tell a story but her

Recovery would be even better.

But a kid had started bullying her. 

But she never went back to cutting. 

She didn't want the Demons back.

After High School no one bothered 

Her anymore. 

She had reached true peace,

She was truly happy. 

Her self esteem and self worth

Was a lot more now.

What had inspired me to write this was my own demons and my road to recovery. I made a poem about it in my head but this time I really wrote it down. Just remember recovery takes a little while but it isn't impossible.
