My Demons

My demons

Torture my mind

Eat at my soul

They cling, fester

At my well-being

My peace of mind, they stole

My words released

Can sting

But makes me whole

I am afraid

I am the cause

Even if not

I played a role

I did not mean

For you

To take such drastic measures

To cease the beauty that you dole

Forgive me

My love

For the things I have said

But kept inside

It takes its toll

It will worm its way

From mind to heart

Turning burning love

To searing hate

Aflame on fiery coals

Crunching munching

Sizzling, broiling

The demons

Work their way

Until there is nothing left

But an ugly gaping hole

My passion

Gets the better of me I know

My darling

You will be back

With a vengeance

To shine your light

Your happiness, my love, is my goal
