demons

i actually think i have a demon inside of me…he tells me to kill myself. and that no one cares and that the world would be a better place without me. but for the last year ive had an angel on my shoulder, salahuddin holmes. i dont care what people say about young love and how it never lasts, this is different. he saved my life. but you see, these demons inside take over, they allow me to make dumb decisions that i cant reverse. i made him a promise, i wont harm myself even when these demons takeover. this is where it gets tricky, i cant go five minutes without looking down and seeing my scars from before, they itch and burn, i scratch hard, i get the urge to go even further. these demons are crawling through my veins making it harder and harder to resist, i MUST keep my promise, but i break.

i have to tell him…he looks at my cuts and stops. i can feel his eyes burning into the cuts. but instead, he grabs me, pulls me close, and kisses my wounds. this angel is willing to look past all of my faults. he whispers “i love you”. this angel is willing to not only except me and my demons, but hes also willing to fight against them.
