Everyone has demons 

Some are worse than others 

Their hatred burns like fire deep inside my mind

They scratch and claw at my soul

That is angelic in a way but it still remains uncorrupted

They make me hate myself 

In ways most can’t imagine

They try to suffocate the light 

By drowning it in darkness

Yet my soul stays uncorrupted

They kill my confidence 

By convincing me it’s arrogance 

The demons silence my cries for help 

By smothering them with fear

To this day I still remain uncorrupted

These creatures hide my pain well 

By shrouding it with a facade 

These monstrosities shatter any hope of happiness

With hail made of sadness 

Despite this my unyielding will stays uncorrupted

The negative force that are my demons continually leave me isolated

To confine me to my thoughts that make me feel alone

These vile beings torment me with endless onslaughts of overthinking

It makes me feel like I’m fighting a battle that I will never win

Even still my reservoir of hope remains uncorrupted

These hellish entities make me feel so useless

By reminding me that I am not doing enough to impact the world

The devilish fiends infect me with guilt

Like a virus even for things that I know aren’t my fault Through all this pain, past, present and future uncorrupted is how I shall remain
