"The demon seed"

There is a demon seed,
inside of me.
It is,
what my eyes can not hide.
It bleeds me dry,
it feasts upon my pain.
It is the air,
in my lungs,
the thought,
in my mind,
the demon seed.
I am but a garden,
for it to grow in.
Once the season,
over,
the seed will abandon me.
Leaving a empty shell,
where the scars of tomorrow will be born.
Find root in my shelter,
find necter in my soul,
for I can not hide from you,
the demon seed.
You are my heaven,
you are my hell,
you give me pleasure,
in knowing my pain,
the demon seed.

Reminds me of a poem i wrote.  good job!
love
leslie

The night is my companion
The solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here
And not be satisfied?
Sarah MacLachlan, "Possession"
