My Demons

The harder I try
The more I want to die
Kill me now
Take me out of my misery

The demons won't release me
They pull me under this dark sea
They call it my mind

I'm terrified
I'm scared
I think

Think too much

I think I'm too big so I starve myself

Think I'm ugly so I wear a mask

I've wasted time.

Spent time wasted on.
It was like rereading a chapter

I know how it ends already
I want to give up

I've headed for the bathroom

And opened the pills
I didn't want to take them

You think some more
You cut deeper and deeper each day
You think the pain will go away
You hide everything by smiling

Never follow the demonds
Follow your heart
