Demons My entire life I've been drowning in a darkness
As a little girl I begged to be loved: Nothing more nothing less
I kept telling myself it will be better when I am grown
But those demons stayed with me never leaving me alone
I stay exhausted from this struggle with in me
Fighting to hide all the pain, the fear, and the anxiety
Living on self hate
Music is my only escape
Reclusive and withdrawn
It's just safer to be alone
Trying to learn to love myself
Tired of pretending to be someone else
The demons won't allow me to heal
After 42 years they have me drowning still
Sitting on my shoulder whispering in my ear
Tears roll down my face at the words I hear
I fall to my knees crying out please let go of me
I beg the demons I scream at God just let me be
They are unwilling or I'm undeserving I guess
So the demons keep me down in this darkness
Living on self hate
Music is my only escape
Reclusive and withdrawn
It's just safer to be alone
Trying to learn to love myself
Tired of pretending to be someone else
The demons won't allow me to heal
After 42 years they have me drowning still
Hours later I'm up off the floor wiping away my tears
Staring in the mirror pushing down all the pain and fears
Hiding it all I Put on my makeup and I walk out the door
So no one will be able to tell I was just curled up crying on the floor
Friends and family are clueless of the war with in
They've never been on this battlefield and don't understand
Living on self hate
Music is my only escape
Reclusive and withdrawn
It's just safer to be alone
Trying to learn to love myself
Tired of pretending to be someone else
The demons won't allow me to heal
After 42 years they have me drowning still

Neither Here Nor There Your poem captures the bittersweet essence of goodbyes beautifully. The repetition of "Come on now, time to say your goodbyes" and "Come on now, time to leave, let's go" adds a poignant rhythm to the piece, emphasizing the inevitability of farewells. The imagery of loneliness in the shadows and the cold, dark, and dazed feeling when someone leaves resonates deeply. The final lines about forgotten memories and the echo of one's voice left behind evoke a sense of longing and the passage of time. Overall, it's a moving portrayal of the complexities of saying goodbye.

Bound by Desire In the depths of desire, I surrender to you,
My body, my soul, in everything I do.
Your dominance, a flame that ignites,
In the dance of pleasure, we reach new heights.

Submissive wife, to your every command,
In the realm of passion, we both understand.
Bound by desire, in the heat of the night,
Lost in the ecstasy, of our love's sweet flight.

Your touch, a fire that consumes my soul,
In your embrace, I lose control.
Submitting to you, I find my release,
In the whispers of pleasure, my worries cease.

Submissive wife, to your every command,
In the realm of passion, we both understand.
Bound by desire, in the heat of the night,
Lost in the ecstasy, of our love's sweet flight.

In the intimacy of our embrace,
We find solace, in each other's grace.
Your dominance, a gift I cherish dear,
In your arms, there's nothing to fear.


Submissive wife, to your every command,
In the realm of passion, we both understand.
Bound by desire, in the heat of the night,
Lost in the ecstasy, of our love's sweet flight.

So take me now, and claim what's yours,
In the realm of passion, our love endures.
Submissive wife, to your dominant reign,
In our love's embrace, we'll forever remain.
