HIS DEMONS!

He was at war
With his demons!
He did not know
How to confront them.
They were always following him
Everywhere,
Like his shadow
As if to,
Constantly remind him
Of their existence.

They had worn him out
He was struggling to stay
Afloat!
But they kept pulling him down,
To drown
In the pit of sadness
Darkness,
Anguish,
Loneliness,
That kept whispering
In his ear
Whenever he was asleep,
Telling him how weak he was!

They wanted to get to him
Be a part of him
For they were looking
For a home
To reside in
And they thought of him
As the perfect host.

They dragged him
To a world unknown
Telling him
That they owned him,
They taunted his sanity
Tormented his peace;
How could he evict them!?
