Again

I've done it again; stumbled back into the clutching hands of the demon. He’s been waiting for me around the corner…around every corner.  Now I can feel the grip of his claws as they pull me in. I shut my eyes so tight against the horrors that tears start to form, but I barely notice. I try to ignore the toxic fumes that are being forced into my lungs. Soon I realize the demon I’ve been running from has been lurking in my soul all along. Once I let it take control the sins that I’ve endured won’t hurt so badly. I’ll find strength in them, a new focus for my lens to look through…to see the world in a new light.
