past demons

past demons

A Poem by TigerLillie

the past twists inside my head
swirling thoughts I dare not share
not with anyone
not with you...

razors scraped across my tender heart
the deep dark secret grabs hold
prying it apart
threatening to break free...

I cannot tell
I cannot say how sorry I am
but you just don’t understand
you wouldn’t, couldn't

no one knows what’s lurking there in the abyss...

struggling to hold back teardrops
I clench my fists
grit my teeth
hoping to beat down the demon inside

no one knows
no one will ever know
this one will die with me...
