A demon I've become ( Original poem and art)

in #poetry7 years ago


A demon I've become



You took away my will to live

you took away my heart

replaced it with stones and blood on my hands

Before you here I stand

The sound of my soul so dark yet so pure

A demon I've become

whispers creeping up in my mind

The agony grows strong


You took away my passion and love

You took away my light.

Replaced it with pain and darkness inside

Before you here I stand.

The sound of my soul so dark yet so pure

A demon I've become

whispers creeping up in my mind

The agony grows strong


You took away my freedom and joy

you took away my sight

Replaced it with chains and sorrow inside

Before you here I stand.

The sound of my soul so dark yet so pure

A demon I've become

whispers creeping up in my mind

The agony grows strong


You took, I gave and I'm here to claim

To take back what you stole

Replace my fear with pride in my heart

Before you here I stand

The sound of my soul so deafening  raw

A demon I am in heart and soul

Whispers become screams I act upon

Your life belongs to me

Lovely poem, I love the smothering darkness it exudes. And the textured artwork is gorgeous too, I really like the colour palette.

I know the feeling of "becoming" the bad guy, because that's what everyone (Seemingly) unfairly expects of you. Despite how hurtful that feeling is, you can't help but play the role, almost uncontrollably. Fine, if this is what you want, then this is what you'll get

Thank you for this amazing reply!
You nailed what I was trying to say with my words!
Have a marvelous weekend!
