Demons

I think I know now

Where it went wrong

It was when I decided

To release my demons

And you unleashed yours.

Haunted by them alone every night

I finally had a soul

To share them with.

I let them free

A grey baleful cloud they became.

So I bared my soul

Much like stripping in a club full of people.

I think you too must have felt the same

You had had too much

Living with them all these years

You finally found a refuge

I felt the gravity of them around me

When you let them out

like a dark ominous shadow.

And in the end

 It was these demons

Which ate us up

Like termite
