Inside My Head... My Demons Are Playing Up

Inside My Head... My Demons Are Playing Up

A Poem by Onlyme

My demons
are playing up today
inside my head

I just can't keep them
under control
the visions
inside
my head

are scream out
at me
loud and proud
reminders of the past
still haunting me
to this very day.

I had to endure
and dealt with
as a child
growing up

Then going
to counselling
and therapy
but still, I am
having problems
at times deal
with all this shite
As an adult now.


People blaming me
telling me off
calling me names
and so forth with
The beatings
getting suffocated
being sex abuse
the nightmares
and the
overwhelming dread
let alone the evilness
of it all towards me
peeing my pants
in the dark
as all hell
breaks loose.

I am living in my
present-day incubus
again inside
my mind's eye
and head
let alone heart

I try to control it
and keep it hidden
from sight.

and act as thou
everything
is really okay
on the outside.

Really i am
in a state
with
a mask to cover
it up
all
my fears and woes
and emotions
are shaking and
in distraught
inside my head
my heart
and let alone
my body.
