Kill The Demon Poem by Je'free Y .

Kill The Demon



Run, run furiously and hide
Beneath dark shadows of lustful flesh.
Am I healing or aggravating my wounds
In this temporary comfort of a drug?
I have seen that place free of poverty,
A neutral world less the savage societies.
I trade a reality of cold shoulders
For an illusion of warm embrace.
To live is to be a warrior;
To love is to risk the pain of loss -
This is every man's common ghost.
Maybe, I am justifying my own demons,
Submitting to their promises of bliss;
But they are wavering vows bound to break
That only intensify my recklessness, my despair.
Where is it written - the wisdom, the courage
To point my finger at me?
If this unfair life is a stage divided into two sides,
Only a single curtain comes
Between destruction and progression.
I would like to learn to stand on the right side
Before it gets gloomier than gloomy.
