Look around, little girl,
What do you see?
A shadow of what's haunting me
A demon always close behind
Slowly taking my life
And tormenting my mind
Listen close, little girl,
What do you hear?
Screams of agony
from a blackened soul
Painful cries of defeat
For there's nowhere to go
Tell me, little girl,
What do you feel?
Thick tears of blood
Sliding down my skin
I'm weary of fighting
I have to give in
Author notes
Archiving old poetry
