These demons of mineA Poem by Diamond Dunbar
I don't know when they came along but I know I'm never alone.
No one can see how one has me by a leash. Another is on my back trying to drop me to my knees. The others just stand around to taunt & tease, man if you only knew I never have peace. They make sure they never leave I even see them in my sleep. My mind is corrupted, my soul is wrecked, my heart is broken and my temple is suplexed. Sometimes they get me so choked up, I can't even speak. I can't even think, get so lost in my mind I forget to eat. They used to come only at night and wake me from my sleep now they come all the time because they know I desire peace. See that's the thing about them they never fail to remind me of the fruits of my dysfunction. Leaving me mentally clustered, coming to conjunction that maybe its just meant to be, maybe these demons are meant for me. Nah f**k that these demons are mine, for me to see that even those with a good heart can carry a ruckus no one can see. © 2017 Diamond Dunbar |
