My demons

The demons i fight are not under my bed
They now live right inside my head
They respond to my name
And laugh at the mirror image
They make fun of my hair and body
And tell nobody can love my face
They warn me against the human race
and remind me how unwanted i am
I was an unwanted child, a mistake
Of a mother who never loved my father
I wonder if anyone else can hear my demons
The way they blacken out my happiness
And never let me smile as often as i wish
My demons love me a lot
And expect the same from me
They stop me from loving someone else
And prefer to have me alone for themselves
My demons rule my train of thought
They are my darkest vallies
And the only allies
In this war called life
