Demons

A Poem by shayne
"

Disappointed that I've let the win again :(

"
I won't do it
I can't give in
Stop telling me I need it

To the voices
Seize the whispers
Urging my obsessions to take over

The pain of reality
Making me lose control
But aching as I was, I can't let this go

To my demons, keep quiet! I can't let you win
The scars can't be hidden
And my anxiety won't let me sit still

It's building up
It's burning
I can't help it anymore

Stop it, I'm pleading for this pain can't be real
The measures are breaking
I can't help but give in

To my demons, take my skin
Slit it and make it bleed
The pain, oh confusing

But somehow so real

I think it is nice. It is a great description. It doesn't need to be improved in my opinion. :)

This is heart-wrenching. The desperation to not give in, the fear of losing yourself. It's really deep. I would hug you. Good job.

I don't think the words or the format are so important in this one. The importance is in purging. Showing the scars,finding your way
