Demon inside me

The darker it get, the stronger i felt, it was the demon speaking out of no-where.

When the lights goes off, the desires comes to play, i resist, but it’s too hard to play..

The demon then tried, whispering in my ears, it was the heart that started showing fear.

Yes the demon are mine, they are build by my life, but i have the power to beat that demon inside.

It says me “I am nothing“, and that’s when i cried, even after achieving success everything seems like a lie.

The louder the voice of the demon, the harder i tried, resistance created a barrier in my entire life.

Looking into the mirror i smiled, it was the demon, standing in-front of me eye – to – eye.

The demon are within, again the whisper arise, this time I hugged the demon, and said,”I know you wanna ruin me, but i am on your side”. He was happy to hear that i supported his evil side..

Little did he knew, my heart was pure, I embraced the demon, that’s when he knew. The whisper got harder and he thought he was on the flow, But with time he knew, when you accept the demon inside you, the demon should go.

After trying few times, he lost hope.. And i am one Who kept Shining throughout the flow.

  5. I was reading “It” from Stephen King, and this analogy was used to describe the “evil” going on in the story: that it was like something heavy rolling downhill, and you could either stay on its way and get squashed, or let it roll its course. I brought this to my situation with mental health, and my question is… how to keep that heavy object to even start rolling? Make it lighter? Tie it down? We will never have a definite answer, but that is the rare beauty within depression, that we keep choosing Life, and solutions, and hope, no matter how deep down we get.
