Walking along the beach
Feeling so lonely and so blue
Noticing way ahead
A man was walking too

My stomach got in knots
My hands began to sweat
Dreams of this moment
Was all that I could get

The closer we walked
The more excited I became
Not seeing his face
But I knew he was the same

The man from my dreams
Sweeping me away
Showing me the destiny
"True Love" is what I say

I closed my eyes
As I walked up to him
Thinking of the happiness
As the moon was very dim

I reached out my hand
As I could feel him touch me
Slowly I opened up my eyes
And all that I could see...

Was the demon of my heart
Standing in front of me
Glaring at me with his evil eyes
I began to cry, you see...

For I knew I was doomed
The demon of my heart was about to win
I only wanted the love
But now I am paying for my sins

I walked with my demon
Along the moon lit night
Shedding a tear here and there
With no happiness in sight

Holding my hand tight
He smiles and says to me..
"The darkness is in your heart,
And soon you will surely see."



 I do not love you for being perfect.....
I love you for being perfect for me!!

So sad, my demons don't visit me when I'm at the beach!!  Sure we all have our demons, but we don't have to let them win!!  
Great work!

Your poem is so true!!! my heart reaches out to you, I can imagine how you feel, I've had many of those sort of dreams as well. The ones where you have everything in front of you, then all of a sudden it is snatched from you!! AS Isis said, don't let the demons win. Don't give in to their evil ways. Reach up and fight and then you shall see that all your dreams come true, you just have to fight for them!!

Oh man this was an excellent poem.  I absolutely loved it.  Damn if my demons don't seem to cloud my vision when I'm only looking for the softer things too.  beautifully done.

Sometimes I feel this way..when I am reaching out for love and it is not returned I think that the demons have control in my life...perhaps it is a time to learn and reflect on my life...and perhaps I need to decide exactly what it is I want in my life.  James

As a hopeless dreamer I can definately relate to this one. Mine have yet to end the way I want them to. My demons are relentless.

I grew up on a beach, and learned to talk to my demons there.
Sometimes they won sometimes I did. But I think I have the upper hand now.
Loved it, Joel.

DkW,
Wow....almost missed this one.  Excellent writing.  Powerful images come to mind.  It is like I can see it happening before me.  Great work!!!

Such an awesome poem. The emotion and vividness that pours from your words is remarkable. I think we've all walked with our demons...you described it perfectly. Keep up the good work!

"Glaring at me with his evil eyes" Not at all what true love looks like!
