Now, you are nothing but a mere shadow of what you once were. You have become one with my inner demons. If you look me in the eyes, perhaps you'll see them, and you might just see yourself. Hidden deep in the corners of my soul, bathing in fire.

I see them everywhere. People with glowy eyes stalking me. At night creeping through the windows, hiding behind trees, standing behind me when i look at my reflection in the mirror. They scan me from inside out, trying to find a flaw and pick on it. They pulled my hair when i was 4. They called me stupid, fat and ugly. One must be careful with such demons. If they get too close, they scratch the beautiful facade you cast upon this world.
At night when everyone is sleeping, they lure you, like a sirens singing, to your bathroom. The door bangs shut and  all at once they shove their fingers in your throat. Like slithering beasts you feel the black, rusty fingers invade and push until you vomit all your insides out. Tears in your red eyes, choking, "once more", they hiss and push again.
These demons possess and suck all your energy out, until nothing is left but skin and bones and you can no longer dance, sing or walk. All you can do is hear some other demons threaten to lock you up in a hospital. "Eat or we will feed you". You can only resist until they attack, as sharp as snakes, and force food in your mouth. They, too, are possessive, for once you taste it they invade your heart and fill the pieces that they themselves broke, enchanting you to taste again, again and again until you can't do it anymore.
Lying on the floor, eyes glowing from tears, you despise yourself. Now you can do nothing but wait for everyone to fall asleep, so that you can feel the comfort of their invasive fingers.
