Here again

by Miss Lonely Teacher   Nov 2, 2011


I'm in this place again
like so long ago,
where my demons
and my angels
each try to take control.
but something's not quite right;
my angels tell me to end it
and my demons tell me to live.
is my life really this terrible?
or are my leaders in disguise?
my angels throw the first blow,
my demons follow up.
so soon it's full blown war
with loved ones in the field.
a new casualty every day.
and I'm forced to stand and watch.
so i stare,
tears rolling freely,
my soul shattering,
my heart slowing,
and my mind closing down.
What have I done?

    I agree with the above comment.
    This shows two sides of you; two very opposite sides, a good and a bad side of the coin. It's really interesting to see who'll win, but in the end, it's up you to decide. I really like this. Keep it up. 5

    Hmm...this is sad and easy to relate with. I like the metaphors you've used. I understand, there's an internal battle; I like how you clarified that you see the good and the bad, the pros and cons of your situation...There's a lot to live for and a lot you'd rather not deal with anymore. & you realize that you're not the only person who you could be hurting, and it's a terrible thing, and it's really sad...But well-expressed. Keep up the good fight, okay?
