I'm Trying

Contributed by pixie on Thursday, 13th January 2005 @ 05:42:09 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



I promise you my love I am trying,
It is hard so I sit here crying,
My soul is being pulled left to right,
I feel just like giving up on my fight.

Feel like letting the demons win,
Letting them eat me from my soul within,
I want to throw myself into the shadows,
As my corridors of sanity are so narrow.

I’m trying to stop being the old me,
I just want to set us both free,
Feels like I have 2 people in my brain,
Pushing & pulling, driving me insane.

One tells me to fight & to be strong,
One is trying to kill me & drown out my song,
Tow personalities inside one head,
One wants to help whereas one wants me dead.

I struggle & battle with each ticking second,
Into the abyss I am always being beckoned,
By the dark half of my personality,
I have never known that of normality.

Only when I am with you do I feel well,
You are the angel that released me from hell,
Please don’t hate me for I am trying my best,
Please don’t let my demons lay me to rest.

And some folks don’t believe in supernatural because they can’t “see” the demons who hunt us. Such blindness! This is a great description of ongoing struggles that tug our very souls. Yes, demons are real, as is both good and evil. Thanks for sharing.

Verygood poem pixie!
I really enjoyed reading this one,
I also fight with my own demons, as do many of us. But I have learned that with family and with firends (like the people at YPDC) I have over come almost all my demons, except one................
So never give up the fight and keep on batteling, for in the end.......YOU will win :)

great write
