I’m sorry I’m still fighting demons
Sometimes I’m not sure if I’m awake or if I’m dreaming
Being asleep is better than constantly screaming
Gluing broken pieces
They are broken for so many reasons
A different demon every season
I’m still not leaving
It’s an uncomfortable feeling
One that needs constant treatment
But I’m not coming to an agreement
Winning is an achievement
If I leave, it means I’ve been beaten
Bleeding, weeping
But I’m not leaving, it’s not convenient
Fighting this hard is not an enjoyment
But it’s my soul’s payment
For so much mistreatment
