Literature Text

Trapped in the arms of a demon,
possessed by evil.

Demons of lust, depression,
self mutilation plague my fading soul.

I can't see beyond them.
My life is dissolving.

I can hear the roars
and feel the change.

The crisp emotionless, voices
of the beasts holding onto me.

The words they whisper out of my own mouth,
echoes in my head.

The shadows on my arms,
the voices in my head,
the presences around me,
the  unpleasant dreams.

I plead for help,
but none come to the rescue.

Scared like a child,
in the arms of a stranger,
I fight back,
only to be slowly defeated,
in the most painful antagonistic ways.

wow that is probably one of the very few poems that have ever sent a shiver down my spine. Fantastic work, this has inspired me to draw. Fantastic work.
