Dark I’m searching for a way
To express these persistent screams
Living beneath these eyes
Crafting nightmares out of dreams
I’m searching for a way
To surpass these sadden seas
But I hold on to my Kraken
Swallowing the beast within me
Is there no place?
To let insecurities come to pass
To burn amongst the sky
To take wings in Earthly drafts
Is there no place?
To drown the insistent thoughts
To wither them to the bone
To expose them till they rot
I forget there is no place
To home creatures of my kind
The unforgiving weathered world
Leaving me behind
I forget there is no place
To embrace who I desire
My creature clawing outward
Set these streets on fire

Sometimes I sit and wonder
If ever I'll be free
But then I still remember:
My strongest demon's me
Life is full of shades of grey,
Remember demons were once angels.
I find that my own demons compliment my angels,
If properly kept in check.
Keep writing.
Your Friend,

Alot of emotion in this
Alot of emotion in this darker piece, I'm captivated by the parts where you protray your demon, and would be very intrested in a piece that further profiled how you see your demons. Again very nice piece great read

I Am Not Afraid
of my beasts and they are many. I bought tranquilizers and made cages in my brain to keep them quiet. Occasionally several escape - I'm from Michigan - we hit the wood and trap 'em - put 'em back where they belong, not out here with us. It's an allegory (extended metaphor) for control of the darkness we all possess. U r not alone ~allets~
Thanks for the understanding.
Thanks for the understanding. I totally see your point. It's a weird feeling when the madness seems to take the wheel. I'm driving down a road that I've driven down a thousands times...and all of sudden it's not enough. The monsters within me are pushing for more. Wanting to reach the horizon but the hindering hands of the world leave me in ashes...so it's time to set things on fire and spawn in the remnants of my past.
