Mental Monsters
Mental Monsters
You may not want to visit
My mind
That's where all my demons dwell.
It's a constant battlefield
Where I'm always on the losing side.
Because it's me against an army of monsters
While I'm just plain old me.
I wasn't always alone in this war
I used to fight alongside my allies:
Hope, Dreams, Happiness
But in this age old war
It has dwindled down to just me.
They've been taken by the enemies:
Despair, Anguish, Sadness
And so I'm here
Fighting a losing battle.
I don't know if I can win
These monsters
Are already tearing at the walls of my mind
While I've been chained up
In my own mind
By demons known as Anxiety and Depression.
I can't get out on my own
I've come to realize.
I need someone to help me-
To help me fight this war in my head.
You may not want to visit my mind
But I may need you to.
Please save me
Before I become one of them.
