My Demons

June 8, 2021
By Anonymous

It was loud

Screaming and begging

Arguing and banging.

In a dark twisted form

Demons came in and out

Now I lay in bed

Over and over the pictures spin

Him laying over me

Evergreen were the memories

How my shouts were silenced

Eaten up by thoughts

Arms pinned me down

Realizing what has come

Down I fell

Yes, was what he heard

Even though my words said “no”

Sour with all the thoughts I became

This piece was something I wrote about when my memories started to flod my mind. This topic is something many young ladies and young men have gone through and I wanted to turn those emotions and memories ino words. I believe now during this time we should all open up and make our voices be heard even if it is anonymously. Dont let the fear of the other person make you believe you aren't powerful.

For me I felt powerless and useless for the longest time, nothing felt like it was going my way and this form of expression allowed me to share my demons and come to light with them.
