The Inner Demon

I walk silent upon the shore
The wind tinkering with my hair
It seems so calm that I really couldn’t know.


Innocence lost.


Clouds cover the moon
Hide from my imperfection
But nothing could keep them away from me.


Sleeping demons.


That’s how it all started
On this cold, cloudy, dark night
The damp wind still plays with my hair.


No bright stars.


They come in great numbers
Driving into my very soul
As if somehow I am not here.


Running doesn’t help.


A portal to them all
To dimensions where Hell seems nice
And dimensions cursed in placid grays.


Home inside me.


That’s when you come from my soul
Bursting out in a bloody volcano
That volcano was mine alone, not anymore.


You take it.


Blood weeps from my body
Staining the pure white sand
And tainting my deep aqua ocean.


Your smiles increase.


I look up at you then
Still denying my inner demon
Your hand comes down to rip my face.


I’m almost gone.


And you laugh inscently
My soul becomes part of you
Part of the Darkness inside us all.


Nothing left.
