Demons

Demons

A Poem by Mason Rayburn

I lie on my bed
as these tears that I shed
reflect my dark mood


These words that I'm writing
as my lip I'm biting
confess the demons that haunt me

The girls that I love
appear white as a dove
even though they are gray at best

I am trapped by religion
in this world I live in
while Hell lurks below

Hell opens wide
for the committer of suicide
since suicide is a sin

So I am forced to wait
as I strive for that pearly gate
even though I will most likely fall short

God's plan it seems is out of reach
since I'm sure our contract I have breached
being a sinner through and through

So as I ponder
I begin to wonder
what waits for me on the other side

Will I reach heaven and paradise
Or be thrust into Hell as my "prize"
Please tell me I do not know

It scares me to think
that I'm on the brink
of falling into fire

I never asked for this life I have
and wish I could give it to someone who would have
used it more wisely than I

Now the day will creep upon me
and then I will see
what Fate has in store for me...
