Locked Inside Poem by Kaysen Fraker

The darkness within
it threatens to claw its way out
tear me apart on its way
destroy its host

I see the demon inside
I feel its evil
taste its hate
experience its fantasies

I do all I can to hide it
hide it from the ones I love
hide it from the ones I hate
hide it from everyone

But it's not enough anymore
it's becoming harder
harder to suppress what's inside
to keep it under control

Some would call me crazy
some would call me paranoid
I call myself a prison
and what's locked inside...

Should never be allowed to escape.
