~MY FAVORITE POEM~
On this page is a copy of my favorite poem. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. This is one of the poems I have had published.  I hope you
enjoy it!
THE DEMON
Shadows dance, tears fall
Walls surround as the demon calls
Lights flicker as the candle fades
The darkness lingers on the present day
The moonlight glistens on the molded sky
The demon howls, it hears my cries
Winds scream through the trees below
As the cries grow louder, the demon grows
The rain spews through the cracks in the earth
As my mind toils through the pain and the hurt
The demon gnaws on the freshly cut wound
As the form of a man casts a shape on the room
The demon gnaws harder as the pain is severe
It feeds on the pain and swallows the tears
The shadow now dances, as my tears storm
I turn to face the ghastly feared form
The moonlight shines on the face I behold
It is a face I once loved, a face I still know
As the darkness grew lighter and I dried my eyes
I turned to the man and let out a sigh
"I no longer want you, I love you, I know
But I no longer need you, it's time to let go"
My final words as the demon dropped, were:
"You can't prevent pain, but you can make it stop."
