The Demons I Face Poem by Thapelo Lebesa

The demons i face,
Are right infront of my face,
In times of pleasure they are around,
But in times of need they are no where to be found.

The demons i face,
Are absorptive with praise,
They don't rest in a fight,
But strive to destroy me with all might.

The demons i face,
Are the demons of the human race,
They walk around me everyday,
Pretending that everything is okay.

The demons i face,
Possess with an unbeatable pace,
Creeping into the hearts of the pure,
Like a disease without a cure.

The demons i face,
Deliberately dissappear without a trace, When I call on to the name of the most high,
They jump; scatter and fly.
