Demons Within

In a world where shadows play,

And dreams spin like a tale,

We’re taught to fear the unseen,

But it’s our own mind that derails.

Forget the childish feeling of security,

Wrapped in a blanket, the past felt pure.

Step into the light of reality's blur,

Where innocence fades, and we’re not so sure.

Dark unseen deities whisper in the night,

But the real demons, they hide in plain sight.

With every breath we take, we’re built to fight,

A war within ourselves, seeking the light.

Oh, can’t you see? It’s all in our minds,

The battles we wage, the ghosts we find.

We build our own prisons, brick by brick,

Forget the fairy tales, it’s time to unstick.

Books written like fairy tales, casting spells,

To rule and conquer, their truths they compel.

Guidelines for the conquest of hearts and dreams,

Metaphors to tame, insidious schemes.

Denying responsibility in shadows of doubt,

Blame the unseen forces when we fall out.

Life's a stage, with roles we must play,

But we’re the authors, don’t drift away.

Oh, can’t you see? It’s all in our minds,

The battles we wage, the ghosts we find.

We build our own prisons, brick by brick,

Forget the fairy tales, it’s time to unstick.

So rise up, let the light guide your way,

Shake off the chains of yesterday’s sway.

With every step forward, let truth unwind,

The only demons we fight are those in our mind.
