Demons

As I pace

In my room

Losing control

Without knowing

Taking these steps

In my own world

Outside of the mind

I stand down a street

A dead end in fact

Where thick gloomy fog

Hugs you to sleep

I take a seat quietly

Completing the circle

Joining my buddies

Demons of the past

Who take refuge 

In seeing me squirm 

We exchange eager laughs

Under the piercing light

Presented by the moon

Holding their attention 

Enough is Enough I say

Being polite and young

I explained my case

As my thoughts faded

My words stopping

Accepting smiles flashed

Teeth glowing bright

So I got up and

Left for good

Leaving the past behind

Releasing their grip

Now able to breath

My life has begun
