My inner Demons

Tammy hanrahan 1977 (Canada)



The voices in my head
They just wont go away
I scream within myself
But I guess there here to stay!

I am screaming to myself
It is more then I can bare
The walls their closing in
HELP! This is my biggest fear.

My inner demons dont talk,
They scream from deep with in
I am so affraid I will lose
And these demons they will win

I am losing this terrifying fight
I feel like walking away
I want to throw the towel in
I fear the demons are here to stay!
