And the Demons Win

dark and empty
soul lost
love turned
inside out

says don't give up
he loves you still
can't get away
maybe never

nurse diagnosis
cares not what
she breaks
in need to fix

can't hold on
no one to help
no one to wake me
no one to care

demons play
night after night
dancing in dreams
holding on tight

morning comes
no light brought
same old hurt
can't be fought

demon there
he can't see
promises broken
to demons glee

says he loves me
hold on tight
give up now
to the demons delight

demons of my own
here to devour
demons take over
never sleeping or waking

demons in control
if you sleep
demons in control
if you don't

sorry you all
sorry so sorry
but demons got me
and won't let me go

let go, let him be
new love of a month takes hold
walk away, do as told
marriage,vows, melt away

It's been said that love is a battlefield... Though they may have won this battle, but...

Great poem, JoAnne; may the good side win the war.

Thank you all for all the wonderful support you have given me in my short time with you, however there seems to be conflicting emotions for my tramp and his new love so out of respect for him and his new love i am going to let the ink well dry. i will miss you all terribly but this was after all his domain first. i love you daniel

Annie ~ It may have been his stomping grounds first, but that doesn't mean there's not enough chairs around or blank pages to fill that people that have parted ways can't still post here.

The Pub and all it's "patrons" are like good friends that you can vent towards, both good and bad. And I'm sure as long as neither one of you openly start swearing or insulting at the other on your respective posts, we all look forward towards seeing your poetry posted.

*hugs at you both* Sometimes life just dictates that a couple parts and goes their seperate ways. I hope both your paths are happier then your days now.

Nice poem.
