The Devil In My Shadow

by Never URs   Jan 11, 2007


I feel so hurt and used
theres no one I can trust
it just turns into abuse
the bruises the scars
are all living proof
of the beatings and fights
that we used to do
homeless nights
with cold hard winds
just because I couldn't win
my bones are frail
with weakness among them
i pray to god
for something to calm them
i shiver i shake
full of regrets
i feel like the sun won't ever set
i try to rescue myself
from my doubts
but my attempts
prove to be no avail
it just becomes harder
i want to die
i strongly consider
but conclude heaven
will always be better
because i don't want the devil
again in my terrors
the feelings of abuse
haunt me with fear
filling me with pain
that I cannot bear

    This is my favorite of yours I've read so far. But perhaps it would be more if you broke it up a little to make stanzas. It would be easier to read, I think. They don't have to be even at all.
    Great poem!
