Mental Illness Awareness
As someone who suffers from it, I know the feelings of it. Often times, more than not, I have to conceal my feelings. Try to convey the feeling of a person (or yourself) with this. Bring awareness to how important it is to recognize and those.
Demons
Oh this pain in my chest, not again
My body on fire, I just can’t win.
The demons laugh as I begin to fade
“Silly girl that’s not how this game is played.”
On nights like this they sing me a lullaby
Atleast I’m not alone, I think as I cry.
The demons, you see, are my best friends
For my time with them will never end.
The times they’re silent are the times I fear
Does this mean the end is near?
The night came where we had our last fight
I finally agreed the demons were right.
Maybe they regret all that was said
But what good does it do now that I’m dead.
