Demons at night


Cries in the night …. always haunted
the darkness calls out to my soul
fear and stark fright in the blackness of night
always wanting but never in control.
My demons they come just to haunt me
they scream at me begging my flight
but I am stuck in my bed and inside my head
till morning will chase away the night.
Then I must wait as a lover in mourning
to bury the light of the day
sometimes in tears I await my worst fears
as the brightness of light slips away.
Darkness always there to surround me
as the night time whispers my name
the demons then come to have some more fun…
and every night it's always the same!
