Battling The Demons 3/28/19 Read Count : 85

Category : Poems

Sub Category : N/A

We all have our demonsThey can have a different name 
No matter what they’re called
They can drive us all insane

I’ve had my share 
Have a few right now 
But many years ago
I took this fervent vow

When l’m thrown on my knees
And fighting to the end
I say to myself
“I will never bend”

No matter what the time
No matter what the day
I am in control 
You go on your way

With this I do not say
I’m immune from being hurt
But years of many scars
I’ve learned how to revert 

When fighting through the pain 
When their attack’s the worst 
 I focus on my will 
 They will need the nurse 

At times It takes awhile 
To overcome the issue 
With writing-reading-sharing
Experience is my rescue 

There have been a few times 
When I thought would give in
But then I told myself 
I’m  in control  and I will win

Just this string of words
Have started the recovery process 
It opened the  door once more
To greet my friend SUCCESS 

When dealing with your demons
I hope you find your ways
There’s more than one right answer 
To leads to brighter days

This is written extremely well as I must say that the Gods are good and I'm really happy that you didn't let the demons win because you seem to be a good dude also nobody deserves to be overcame by demons because we were all made in the creators likeness and we are all his children...

This made me smile. It also reminded me of what i'm truly made of. Thank you for the trigger, Maurice. It couldn't have come at a better time for me. 💜
