She has friends in the shadows

Poem about a girl becomes friends with her inner demons

She has friends in the shadows,

She has friends of the shadows who talk,

She has friends in the shadows who line dance on her walls,

she has friends in the shadows of the dark.

She hates the light you see,

because she is blind you see,

to all the things you see,

because you are not something she sees.

She plays with the shadows of the dark.

She's dark, but nothing is as dark as her heart.

She has friends in the shadows who guide her.

They tell good things and bad.

She has friends in the shadows for they never leave her,

She has friends in the shadows who need her.

She loves to play with souls. 

She collects them you see.

Everyone who hits her,

Burns her, cuts her,

scorns her, and hates her

she captures. 

She captures each painful moment in her mind,

She goes home and replays the moment,

And summons her shadow friends to life;

And when they grow angry they, 

cause her to scream,

She wakes up in a cold sweat realizing its all just a dream,

but a cut on her arm from her friends remind her its not

she has friends in the shadows of her heart.

They leak into her soul through her wrist's cuts and invade her heart.

There's nothing more that she wants than to have friends,

But there is a price she pays for letting the darkness inside her heart.

She is a host to the friends of the dark.
