The Evil We Invite Inside It happened late one night when I was getting ready for bed, an angry male voice echoed inside and the terror filled my head. He shouted loudly, "Get out!" and said again, "Get out of here!" I was awakened from my calm and I could feel a presence near. My room was getting bitter cold when I turned out the light, there was such an evil feeling I knew something wasn't right. I turned the lights on quickly and the fear kept me awake, there was still an eerie feeling and it was more than I could take. I reached for my medication that I took with prayerful heart, I looked at my picture of Jesus and used his name that evil depart. Somehow I managed to fall asleep while the feeling was strong, there has been anger and tension when we needed to get along. Family lives in the house upstairs and downstairs we have our place, the spirit of hate is among us and mean words are a disgrace. Tears have fallen from the shame and hurt and anger lives inside, nobody can feel true happiness when there is, "Better than you" pride. Every time one says, "Go away!" it's returned with an unkind threat, at times we throw an object but the fight isn't over yet. "I hate you!" has been said and felt and we stab each other in the back, the voice I heard last night was real because rude whispers do attack. We need a blessing on this house where feelings of love belong, the dark presence and angry voice don't want us to get along. Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
