somebody's dungeon

How foolish it was of me
to think the demons would desist
just stop screaming in my head
oh no, they still exist.

Incessant in their wailing
loud in their call
hoping that at last
I will stumble and just fall.

Dark within the walls
of the rooms of my mind
screaming out their pain
with memories unkind.

I'd slay them if I could
put them finally in their grave
but alas, these beasts
have made of me their slave.

i never really thought of anybody's mind having rooms but yet, that makes a lot of sense. i enjoyed this one greatly as always keep writing and i'll keep reading

life may just take a while but i guess heaven's worth the wait

I really liked this.  Each line was beautiful... never losing the touch.

It is a relief and a bit frightening to find writing you identify with.
