Inner Demons

Blinded are we...who’s truth we can’t see

Lost, left in our own delusions to wonder aimlessly

Hidden inside locked away where no man dare tread

Lays a treasure trove of things left remaining to be said

Secrets we dare not speak

So on the surface we lie because we are too weak

Each lie we tell digs deeper into the well

A dark endless pool where our demons dwell

Born of pain, hurt, and disgrace

Our demons rise from our mind's darkest place

Growing until they become to huge to face
