The demons

The voices are calling again
telling me this is not the end
one more time I must draw back the blade

this is a demon they cry
the demon must die, must die
or if you do not do your job
it will kill again

It is extremely hard to do
as they look human
how can i possibly do this?

The voices will not stop
they tell me this is the last one
I know they are lying

I need help, but where will I go?
They will all think I'm crazy
All I want is for the voices to stop

Maybe they are telling the truth this time
maybe this is the last one and they will stop
All I want is for the voices to be quiet

To stop them from screaming I draw back the blade
and delve it into the demon again
I've done this countless times before
it is so easy now

The warm blood covers my hand
and the voices are silent once again

    You could take this both from a "realistic" (aliens:The Movie kinda real) or from a more metaphorical standpoint. Both work but searching for meaning in the darkness does not leave the reader empty handed.

    awesome!

    \/\/o\/\/. Okay.. Man.. Wow. This is so powerful. I love the style of this write.. It's absolutely amazing. I'm not quite positive of the motive of this, but it sounds like a suicide at the end.. If it was intended to be that, then AWESOME way of putting it.. If it's simply killing the demons, it still rocks! I like the screaming voices

    Good write! And good luck with the contest *growls at my fellow competitor* =)

    ..-Ho||oW-..
