My Demon Lurks - 2015

How, even though we think demons are bad, they can sometimes be good for you, let you hold on to your sanity.

My demon lurks
behind my eyes.
He likes to sit
where he can
see the world.

My demon whispers
into my ear
waiting for me
to listen.

My demon hates
what he cant see,
so he hides
behind my
eyes.

My eyes
are his doorway
To see what
I am.

I am his doorway
to earth,
which he was
born from.

He came from
the earth
so hot and red.

His mother,
is Gaea.
He is my
demon.

She cannot take
my demon,
She will not take
my demon,
for my demon
is
LOVE.
