they called it dark poetry
I called it the melodies of my demons
they called it depression
I called it the dark side of reality
they called it bipolarity
I called it the eclipse of personality
they called them shadows
I called them a reminder of the darkness within
they see life in rainbows
I see mine in black and grey
I drown in the darkness
but it's deep in the dark that I feel safe
deep where no one can see
where there's nothing but me and my demons
and it's then that I listen
to all that my demons have to say to me
and deep in the darkness
I breakdown
not for me
but for my demons
I mourn them
their misery
their pain
their torture
and it's then that I realize
that me and my demons
are one and the same
