Him

Some people say it's too hard to become friends with your demons. Me? I say it's easy. I wish it never had to come to this but it happened and I can't go back. I begged and pleaded for too many years and I watched my life slipping like sand through my fingers. I finally had to make my demon my best friend. I wish I had other options but hey sometimes you have to go with what's best for you. He makes sure my needs are met and I do the same for him. Sometimes it's hard to meet his needs especially on tough days. Lately all there are is dark days and rain clouds. I can't see the rainbows or the light. You say to pick myself up. Dust myself off. But in reality all I wanna do is go back to bed. I smile all day but that smile only goes skin deep. No one knows what's inside of me. No one can see the darkness that has taken over my soul. I'm lost in a world where there is no light or hope. I make others happy so they have something to live for. I am only here to make others see the light. I want people to see that there is still good in the world. I know that the reason you write on your wrists is to let your demons be heard. I know you can't win if you silence him. I know he destroys you. But I want you to know that there is a better way. It's called letting it all out. I know it sounds painful but if you let it out he has no control over you and life will get better. Do you trust me? Will you take my hand? Will you let go of all he has to control you by?
